Declaring or Changing a Major or Minor

College of Engineering Undergraduate Policy

Students must have a declared major on record before registering for the junior year. Students looking to declare a major, or change their declared major, must submit a Change of Major Form. Students will be assigned an advisor corresponding to their major of choice.

College of Engineering students who are planning to pursue a minor within the College of Engineering, or at another school/college within BU, should apply as early as possible—or by May 1 of the junior year—to facilitate course planning. Applications for minors can be found via the ENG Undergraduate Minors page and should be submitted to engrec@bu.edu.
