• NETWORKING: Completing core subjects with the same peers will help you develop strong friendships and future professional networks.
• GLOBAL MOBILITY: Exchange, study abroad & dual degree programs are based on assumptions about subjects taken in the first year. Students who deviate from the study plan may have to forgo these opportunities.
