Academic Exploration Program

For decades, Bradley University’s Academic Exploration Program (AEP) has helped students who are undecided about their major identify and pursue their academic and professional goals. Through a combination of instruction, reflection, and exposure, students gain the experience and confidence to declare a major and succeed professionally.

The key to success in the Academic Exploration Program rests with the student-academic advisor relationship. Each student in AEP is assigned an advisor, with whom they will spend over 30 hours in the classroom and one-on-one advising within the first semester. The award-winning academic advisement in AEP is integrated throughout the AEP curriculum. It helps students select the major and career path that's best for them through the lens of whole student development.
