Majors and Minors
At Capital, we partner with you to forge a focused path to your future—a pathway that begins with your dreams and culminates with you becoming the person and the professional you want to be. Each of our 64 majors, 57 minors, and 10 pre-health specializations offers a distinct focus, yet you will find endless interconnections between your chosen discipline and related—or seemingly unrelated—areas of study.
Broad Knowledge. Focused Skills. Blurred Lines.
From the beginning, your education will be infused with critical thinking and problem solving — first through broad-based learning in our liberal arts core that will make you a well-rounded, educated citizen, and then through focused study in your major. But it gets even better. You’ll be focused on your major, but not limited by it — consider a second major, a minor, or a Pre-Health Specialization: Pre-Athletic Training, Pre-Chiropractic Medicine, Pre-Dentistry, Pre-Medicine, Pre-Occupational Therapy, Pre-Optometry, Pre-Pharmacy, Pre-Physical Therapy, Pre-Physician’s Assistant, or Pre-Veterinary Medicine.

Making a Major Impact With Your Minor
We know an extra motivated student when we see one. Always inquisitive. Always engaged.
Adding a minor means more work. It's true. But for those who aspire to exceed the status quo, your major might not be enough. That's why we have over 50 minors to help fill that intellectual void and complement your major course of study.
Or perhaps you have a completely unrelated area of interest and want to explore what another field may look like. It's perfectly fine. Providing options is what higher education is supposed to do.
