Academic Departments & Programs
You can choose among 31 majors, 30 minors and 10 interdisciplinary concentrations in a wide range of academic areas and can also take advantage of Clark's Accelerated B.A./Master's Degree Program, with the fifth year of study free to qualified students. If you have questions, you can e-mail a professor from that department. Since Clark is part of the Colleges of Worcester Consortium (COWC) , you may also take one course per semester at any of the 12 other COWC schools after your first-year. The credit will count towards your Clark degree.
