For motivated students, nothing is more rewarding than studying a subject designed specifically with your goals and interests in mind. The Interdisciplinary Studies Program offers a Bachelor of Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies for students who want to design their own major.
The interdisciplinary studies course of study has a strong thesis component, and students are expected to plan their program with an increased emphasis on how their coursework will ultimately influence their research topic.
Interdisciplinary studies majors are more meaningful when students pair their program of study with strong experiential learning opportunities like research, study abroad and internships, all of which help them put their major in context with possible post-graduate opportunities.
