Major Academic Plans
Each major at Chico State has a Major Academic Plan (MAP) to guide you toward completing all the requirements for your degree.
- Use the 4-year MAP as a tool to help you graduate in four years!
- Refer to your MAP to plan the sequence in which you take your courses.
- Your MAP illustrates an efficient path toward completing your degree, but it is not set in stone. Most GE courses, and many major courses, are interchangeable throughout the various semesters.
- Use your MAP to identify opportunities to take elective courses in addition to your major – perhaps incorporating a minor, certificate, study abroad, or internship.
Discuss your MAP and your options with an Advisor in Academic Advising Programs (SSC 220) and with your Major Advisor.
2019-2020 Major Academic Plans will be available in June 2019
