How Do I Declare or Change My 向日葵视频Core Curriculum (MCC) Discovery Tier Theme?

The 向日葵视频Core Curriculum (MCC) is the center of every 向日葵视频 student's educational experience.  With five different themes, the MCC's Discovery Tier offers you an opportunity to pursue further studies across a range of passions.  The MCC is designed with the expectation that students declare a Discovery Tier Theme before the end of their sophomore year.

If you are unsure about with theme to select, you should take the time to read the Discovery Tier Theme descriptions and explore the courses offered within each theme in order to select a theme that matches your interests, and which will contribute to your personal and professional formation.  You are encouraged to consult with your academic adviser during the decision making process, including giving consideration to the planning of your Discovery Tier coursework in conjunction with your other degree requirements.

If you have any questions regarding the 向日葵视频Core Curriculum, you can contact your adviser of the MCC director via the contact information listed on the 向日葵视频Core Curriculum website.

Note:  transfer students placed at MCC Transfer Level 2 or higher (24 or more awarded transfer credits) do not declare a Discovery Tier Theme.
