Second (Double) Major

Undergraduate degree students may choose to fulfill the requirements of two major programs.

  • UNH Durham and Manchester students must obtain approval from the department offering the second major, and the dean of the college in which the second major is offered.
  • UNH CPS Online students must work with their academic advisor to submit a change of program form to request the second major.

The following rules are applicable to all students pursuing a second major:

  • If the two majors confer different degrees (e.g., B.A. vs. B.S.), students must choose one degree to be awarded and fulfill all degree requirements for the selected degree.
  • A maximum of eight (8) credits may be shared between the two majors.
  • UNH Durham students may not pursue a second major offered by UNH CPS Online.
  • UNH CPS Online students may not pursue a second major offered by UNH Durham or Manchester.
