Majors and Academics

 

 

 

Campus majors and programs are organized into three academic schools: the School of Engineering, the School of Natural Sciences and the School of Social Sciences, Humanities and Arts. Students will have opportunities to participate in research early in their university experience and will work with faculty to address real-life environmental and social issues. Graduates from UC Merced will find themselves better prepared to navigate and succeed in a complex world.
