Welcome from the President

It is a genuine pleasure to welcome you to Temple University. Ahead of you, you have remarkable opportunities here to work closely with our stellar faculty - international leaders in their disciplines - and the best students in Temple's history.

I am especially delighted to introduce you to the Undergraduate Bulletin, which will serve as a valuable tool in your academic journey at Temple.

The Undergraduate Bulletin provides details of degree programs and the requirements necessary to complete 141 undergraduate majors, as well as all undergraduate minors, concentrations and certificates. With this information, as well as with guidance from your academic advisors, you will be able to map out your path to graduation.

In addition, you will find here links to descriptions of more than 4,000 undergraduate courses offered at Temple that will enable you to explore the vast amount of opportunities you have to enrich your knowledge as a Temple student. From the origins of our ancient world to leading-edge innovation in virtually every discipline, Temple offers you unparalleled resources to investigate and engage in all fields of human endeavor, science and creative expression.

Beyond fulfilling the specific course requirements for your chosen major, I urge you to be bold in your choices of elective classes, to step out of your comfort zone and study subjects that you might not have considered before. Your years at Temple will provide the best period of your life in which to to this - and with knowledge that is both deep and broad, you will be well prepared for success in the years ahead.

I wish you all the best.
