Declaration of Major
Following the completion of 60 credit hours of acceptable college work, students
must complete the Declaration of Major form from the UMKC Records Office and obtain
signatures from the designated dean's representative. Students who want to
change an officially declared degree program must repeat the declaration
process.
Baccalaureate degree-seeking students must fulfill the specific
requirements for a degree program as outlined in the appropriate catalog
section. Regardless of the number of hours transferred, a minimum of 12 hours
in the major field of study must be earned in residence at UMKC. Check with an
academic adviser for information on the number of departmental residence hours
required for a specific degree program.
