Current position

Major/Minor System

It allows for the flexible integration of academic disciplines from different fields.

At J. F. Oberlin University, you can create original learning tailored to your interests and preferences. The learning that makes this a reality is the 'Major-Minor System.' Graduation requires completing the major program or course of your academic group as a major (main major), but if you have other areas you wish to study, you can combine them as minor (minor). Aim for your own unique goals and expand your learning possibilities.
