What is A&S Open Option or聽OPNO?
In the College of Arts and Sciences, we believe creativity and innovation occur when we explore widely, synthesize disparate ideas and treat AND as a verb by actively drawing together fields of study and interests.
The ampersand represents this collision, and A&S OPNO students live out ANDing by exploring A&S' 48 majors, 49 minors and 23 certificates.
Keep your A&S options open and discover:
