  Undergraduate - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Students of higher degrees are known as postgraduates (or often simply graduates).
Students in their first, second, third, and fourth years of study are often called, respectively, freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and seniors (although some institutions, such as many women's colleges, substitute "first-year" for "freshman" in an attempt to remain more gender-neutral).
Successful completion of undergraduate work generally requires the completion of many courses of varying subject and difficulty, and a concentration or "major" that focuses on a particular academic discipline.

 Welcome to Adobe GoLive 6
Fourteen of these students agreed to participate in in-depth interviews in which they were asked to describe how they found a focus for their research, what the major parts of the process were, how they retrieved, evaluated, and made use of sources, and how the research process related to the writing process.
Although relying on the students' hindsights decreases the reliability of the results of this study--recollected and self-reported data usually suffer from bias--it was decided that observing students during the research process or recording theft comments on the process as it happened would be too intrusive and too lengthy a procedure.
One student with a double major chose a focus that involved both majors: "I wanted to tie as many courses together as I possibly could." Though she had never dealt with her subject before, it was a subject that she could approach from the disciplines in which she had some training.
