About Majors Explored :

• By using this website, prospective college students can learn more about a particular college major or industry from the Universities that teach it and from the companies that use that discipline on a daily basis.

What's in it?

23 discipline specific networks that will showcase 20 nationally recognized universities that teach a particular discipline and 10 corporations that use that discipline on a daily basis. Details below...

• Students get a definitive understanding of what’s REALLY involved in a major and can make a more educated decision as to the direction they should take in college
• Students have a better understanding of what is required of them before they enter a program
• Students are exposed to more career options as told by real companies in real situations, rather than simply having generic definitions
• Students who seek a program first, will have a place where there are 20 viable options for study in the particular discipline, rather than a jumble of schools where they have to hunt to see if the program they want really even exists

• The fact that we only allow 20 schools nationally per network will decrease recruiting competition
• Having well known corporate partners who contribute content will better illustrate the outcome of going into a particular program
• Showcasing the university program in the capsule as we do, gives the student and parent a much better understanding – and higher confidence level- of the program a school offers
• Students who have a very good understanding of why they are going to a particular school will increase retention – as they visualize the outcome before they arrive
• Allows a university to showcase programs that otherwise go unnoticed
• Allows a university to position their program as a leader on a high regional, or national scale

• An opportunity to position their companies in front of teen markets in a socially responsible manner
• An opportunity to market to parents as patrons of education
• An opportunity to market to universities as partners
