Double Majors

• A system where students complete two majors during their enrollment to obtain a degree. Applications are limited to departments (majors) established at the UOS.

  Departments/majors not eligible for double major application:

  1. ① School of Architecture (architecture major; 5-year program)
  2. ② Department of Music
  3. ③ Department of Sculpture
  4. ④ Department of Design (industrial design major)
• Eligibility
  • Students who have completed at least one semester at the UOS and are expected to advance to the 2nd semester of their sophomore year through the 2nd semester of their junior year.
  • Students in the architecture major must be expected to advance to the 2nd semester of their sophomore year through the 2nd semester of their senior year.
• Withdrawal
  • If a double major is canceled or withdrawn, credits already earned for the double major will be classified as general elective credits.
• Degree conferment
  • Double major completers must meet graduation requirements for both majors (including minimum major credit requirements and graduation credit requirements) and pass graduation qualification certification.
  • If a student fails to complete the credits required for graduation in the double major department, graduation may be deferred at the request of the double major student (Article 10(1) of the UOS Regulations on Multiple Majors).
• Notes
  • Only one double major can be applied for and completed (application for two departments is not allowed).
  • Double majors and minors cannot be pursued simultaneously.
  • Students currently pursuing a minor who wish to apply for a double major must first cancel their minor and obtain final approval before applying.
  • The cancellation process may take several days depending on the department and college, so it must be processed in advance.
  • While there is no limit to the number of students allowed for double majors in principle, restrictions may be applied by departments or majors in cases of unavoidable circumstances such as insufficient educational facilities.
