Welcome from the President

Welcome to Temple University. The Undergraduate Bulletin will be a guide to your academic journey during your years at Temple. I hope you will find it to be helpful as you embark on an exciting adventure of discovery at the university.

The Bulletin is a guide to the requirements for completing a major. With more than 4,300 opportunities to learn about everything from accounting to women's studies, it is also a window into the vast array of human knowledge. As you browse this catalog, you are sure to find something that will interest you.

The Bulletin is more than a listing of courses. You can also find a description of academic programs and degree requirements and general information about the services and programs at Temple, reflecting the breadth and depth of opportunities the university has to offer. Temple has a distinguished faculty in 17 schools and colleges and offers 141 undergraduate majors as well as several undergraduate minors, concentrations and certificates.

Temple also provides many settings in which to learn. In addition to the flagship Main Campus, Philadelphia-area campuses include the Health Sciences Center, the Center City Campus in Philadelphia and a major suburban campus at Temple University Ambler. The university has education centers in Harrisburg and Fort Washington and international campuses in Tokyo and Rome. Temple also offers undergraduate programs throughout the world: Brazil, France, Germany, Ghana, Great Britain, India, Mexico, Puerto Rico, Senegal, and Spain, as well as opportunities to participate in study abroad programs worldwide with partner colleges and universities.

Temple has much to offer you. I hope you will find this Undergraduate Bulletin valuable as you plan the journey that lies before you.
