So what is an Academy anyway?
  • Academies are small learning communities within a
    school that draw on the interests of students in
    learning about a particular field of study.
  • Academies help prepare students for their
    post-secondary education and careers through
    academic learning and hands-on work experiences
    within a theme-based, contextualized curriculum.
  • Through participating in Academies, students are
    exposed to broad career opportunities and
    experiences in the work force that enable them to
    make sound choices for their academic and
    professional careers.

What is the difference between an Academy and a
Major?
  • Majors exist under each Academy. Academies are
    like departments that contain a number of majors
    related to different areas of study.
  • Students choose a major based on their career
    interests.
  • For example, a student who was interested in
    studying Law would choose the Legal major under
    the International Business Finance Academy.
