wellesley alumnae talk about their majors

Wellesley offers over 50 departmental and interdepartmental majors. The major provides an opportunity to find an intellectual home--to study a field in depth, learn the approaches and methods of scholars in the discipline, engage the questions that excite researchers, and get to know faculty and other students in the department or program.

The set of alumnae profiles collected on this site will give you an idea of the range of options you have with a major in any field. The theme that emerges from all the profiles is that your major should reflect your passion, not a narrow definition of what you can do with a degree in that field.
