Majors and Departments
What do you really want to do? No matter what their major, Johns Hopkins students are active learners, engaged and alive in what they study.

It's an energetic community full of differences—but open to everyone with a thirst for learning. Instead of a rigid core of compulsory courses, Hopkins requires only that you fulfill general distribution requirements in several academic areas (depending on your major), a writing requirement, and for some majors, a language requirement. Beyond that, you’re free to concentrate on what you love, or to explore more broadly.

Curious to see what Hopkins alumni have done with their degrees in the real world? Check out the Career Center's major guide.
