FRESHMAN-ADMITTING COLLEGES

Freshmen accepted to the University of Minnesota are admitted to one of the seven colleges listed below.
 

BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES

The College of Biological Sciences (CBS) offers majors in biochemistry; biology; ecology, evolution, and behavior; genetics, cell biology and development; microbiology; neuroscience; and plant biology. CBS is one of only three colleges in the nation devoted entirely to the study of biology. Through the relationships among biological disciplines, chemistry, and other physical sciences, students learn biology through examples and hands-on experiences that apply the scientific method to real-world problems. Most CBS graduates pursue graduate studies in the biological sciences or enter professional programs, including medicine, dentistry, pharmacy, public health, veterinary medicine, and K-12 teaching. The remainder pursue employment as researchers at universities, biomedical and biotechnology companies, or in public service at non-profit or government agencies.
 

DESIGN

The College of Design (CDes), located in a major design metropolis and in one of the top research universities in the U.S., is at the forefront of the socially responsible design movement and a leader in sustainability. The faculty and students in the college seek to advance the quality and value of the natural, designed, and social environments, with a focus on the interaction of people and their world.
The College of Design offers Bachelor of Science (B.S.) degrees in Apparel Design, Architecture, Housing Studies, Interior Design, and Retail Merchandising. In addition, the College offers a Bachelor of Design in Architecture (B.D.A.), a Bachelor of Fine Arts (B.F.A.) in Graphic Design, and a Bachelor of Environmental Design (B.E.D.) in Landscape Design and Planning.

 

EDUCATION AND HUMAN DEVELOPMENT

The College of Education and Human Development (CEHD) offers undergraduate and graduate study in a wide range of teaching, business and human development programs that rank among the very best in the nation. Some programs offer preparation for careers in business, government, and community settings, while others prepare students for preK-12 teaching licensure by the state of Minnesota. Students can choose from a wide range of options, such as kinesiology (the study of human movement), family social science (to prepare for careers in helping people and families), youth studies (to prepare to work with youth in community settings), business and human resource development (applying business and marketing knowledge to human resource issues), foundations of education (preparing for an early childhood or elementary teaching career), recreation, park and leisure studies (to prepare for careers in outdoor education or recreation management), and sport management (to prepare for careers in sports marketing/promotion or community sports programs).
Our unique approach to licensing provides future teachers with the tools they need to impact the lives of children, be prepared to effectively teach all students, and make a difference in the education system. Research and experience show that students who complete our programs are better prepared for the challenges of real-world classrooms and are more likely to succeed in their careers. Before entering a licensure program, applicants complete an undergraduate degree in an area that they want to teach (for example, mathematics in CSE or history in CLA). Explore the teaching profession.
Undergraduates can also get on a fast track to teaching licensure through the College's DirecTrack to Teaching program, which offers guaranteed admission to a licensure program, valuable exposure to the culture of teaching and schools, and access to a community of peers who also want to teach.
