Programs and Majors

Undergraduates study in six of IIT's eight academic divisions. Students are encouraged — and even required — to take courses from across the various programs to complete their degrees.

If you do not have a planned area of study before entering, you can choose an Undecided path among Armour College of Engineering, College of Science and Letters, or a General Undecided.
