Again, these are just a few of the major categories. Each category contains multiple specific majors, and additionally, WKU offers various minors, certificates, and pre-professional programs. The wide range of available majors means that you're very likely to find a program that suits your interests and career goals. It's also worth noting that each major will have multiple concentration options, which describe the specific areas within a field.
To get the most accurate and specific information, I'd recommend going to WKU's website or giving them a call to get comprehensive details on the major that you're particularly interested in. The academic advisors there can also be of great help in advising you on the sequence of courses and the academic path that you'll need to follow based on the major you choose.
