Individualized

All students have the opportunity to create an individualized program, which gives you the chance to fashion a specialized course of study, or academic program, of your own design. This is an appealing alternative if your interests or career goals aren't met by one of the more traditional programs offered at Grand View.

When you choose this option you'll begin the process of creating an individualized program by selecting a Grand View faculty member to work with you to develop a proposal. This proposal must include the following: rationale, objectives and a detailed list of courses that will comprise the major. It must be presented to the Curriculum and Educational Policy Committee of the faculty for approval before the end of the first semester of your junior year.

Recent majors approved by the Curriculum and Educational Policy Committee have covered such topics as:

Strategic Planning
Communications Management
International Cultural Photography
