Students from the class of 2014 are required to choose a second major (double major, minor, interdisciplinary program) or advanced major course. Due to the belated notice, students are in trouble and haven’t had enough time to choose another major. So they chose a second major without understanding the purpose of this requirement. The school announced, “Unemployment today is a serious problem but it can be recovered by taking a double major.” However, a week after it was announced on the Internet, the application process closed. The students who wanted to change their choices or missed the application dates are in trouble once again. Those students who think their current majors do not suit them should look into this requirement in more detail.

Applying for the second major and advanced major course for the first semester of 2015 ended after just four days; November 17 to 21 last year. The application process is as follows: students should submit the application form to their own department office. However, if students want to apply for a second major, they must first visit the wanted major’s office and gain it’s approval. It is not necessary to submit an application form for advanced major courses. You cannot choose any major for the second major. More details are in the chart.

When you want to apply for a department with combined majors, you must be aware of some regulations. If you are taking courses or newly applying for a department with combined majors, you must complete the course before February, 2017. If you do not, it will not be accepted as a second major. It will be difficult to complete it because you need to earn overloaded credits in a short time. These are the combined majors in each department.

You can check your own application details for the second major and/or advanced major course in the academic administration listed on the school’s homepage since December 28 of last year. However, if you want to change something, you can do so only one time and by submitting an application form to your department before the end of the second semester of your third year. The employment service center announced, “As a secondary major has become compulsory and the majority of students have started to act on it, it will be a merit when you make your own story about it.” Let’s make our own story by widening our studies and choosing a second major related to our goals. < Copyright © The Gachon Herald All rights reserved > |
