It's Your Decision
One of the most important decisions you will make about your college education is to choose your major. Some students know what career path they want to follow before they even set foot on campus; others need a little time to find their way.
Here at IUP, you'll have all the resources you'll need to choose your path to a rewarding career, plus the classes to give you a head start on your journey. We offer more than 140 majors in a variety of areas, including science, technology, education, medical, business, and the arts. It's in those majors that you'll find attentive and knowledgeable professors, small class sizes, and resources to help you succeed.
You can also do some of your learning outside the classroom. We'll help you gain research opportunities, internships, and a professional network to help launch you into the career you choose.
