Using Data to Identify and/or Verify Meta-Majors
Nguyen, Alyssa; Molloy, Kathy; White, Michelle; Nguyen, Vinh
RP Group
Meta-majors refer to the creation of broad program pathways or areas of interest, such as "Allied Health or Business." They are key components of the Guided Pathways efforts that provide students with a more structured and integrated academic experience. There are several different approaches (e.g., sorting exercises) colleges can use to develop their meta-majors. This guide offers colleges an example of how one type of data--curriculum information--can be used to identify potential meta-majors or validate the meta-majors that have already been created. The steps outlined in this guide are part of a multi-faceted approach to ensuring that meta-majors are designed with students in mind.
