Design Arts | Bachelor’s Degree
In your Design Arts major, a new program administered through the College of Professional Schools’ School of Architecture + Art, you’ll integrate theory and application to unify art, craft and technology to master stone arts.
You’ll learn contemporary design production techniques, which blend traditional arts with modern technical expertise, such as computation and computer numeric control machinery. You’ll also learn to market what you make by complementing your core study with personal finance/business and general education courses. Your junior year will include a semester abroad in CityLAB:Berlin; your senior year will include an internship or apprenticeship and a capstone project.
Education | Bachelor’s Degree
Upon completing your Bachelor of Science in Education, you’ll receive elementary licensure for grades K-6 or secondary education licensure for grades 7-12. Our program requires all students to have an additional major. Students pursuing elementary education may select from the majority of majors offered at Norwich University. Students pursuing secondary education must major in mathematics.
Electrical and Computer Engineering | Bachelor’s Degree
Electrical engineers have the greatest variety of devices to work with of any field of engineers. They work with nanocomponents, so small that you need a microscope to see them, and with megacomponents that are so large they need to be housed in buildings the size of a football field.
Computer engineering is interdisciplinary, bridging electrical engineering and computer science to bring hardware and software together. Computer software engineers first analyze the needs of users and companies, then design, construct, test and maintain the necessary software or systems through knowledge of electronics, programming and coding.
Engineering | Bachelor’s Degree
The program stresses lab work, internships and a focus on solving real-world problems. Majors are encouraged to form relationships with colleagues and professors in other departments and universities to better understand the dynamics of real-world projects. Whether you join an Antarctica-based science expedition or work to improve a NASA minisatellite, increase the efficiency of solar panels, or revive a hydropowered electrical plant, you’ll apply the knowledge you gain in the classroom to solving grand challenges of the 21st century.
English | Bachelor’s Degree
An English degree is excellent preparation for many professions and occupations, including law, medicine, teaching, journalism, communications, business, government and military service. Many of our English students pursue post-graduate study. Norwich also offers an English minor that will enhance any course of study.
Environmental Science | Bachelor’s Degree
Students are offered abundant hands-on experience in problem solving. Many courses include studies of active environmental problems. Norwich University is in the valley floor of the Dog River and surrounded by wide biological and geological diversity within walking distance. This setting lends itself to our program’s emphasis on outdoor fieldwork. All Environmental Science students take a pair of capstone courses involving participation in original research, often coordinated with faculty research and involving travel.
Exercise Science | Bachelor’s Degree
Exercise science provides majors with a fundamental background in human physiology and a solid foundation in the natural sciences. Students acquire scientific literacy related to the biological and exercise sciences. Majors demonstrate their competency through written and oral expression. Exercise science majors conduct laboratory research, learning hands-on experimental methodology, approach, design, and statistical analysis.
Geology | Bachelor’s Degree
Our strong emphasis on field studies, outdoor experience, and hands-on problem solving gives graduates solid field and laboratory skills that they use to solve Earth-related problems in industry, graduate school, government, and the military.
Health Science | Bachelor’s Degree
As a Health Science student at Norwich, you can take one of two pathways: Pre-Professional Health Careers or Accelerated Master of Athletic Training.
The Pre-Professional Pathway prepares you for graduate or professional study in medical school, physical therapy, occupational therapy, physician assistant, and other related programs. Students take a core of health-related courses, with ample flexibility to shape a curriculum needed for admission into your chosen field of post-baccalaureate study.
