Interdisciplinary Studies (BA)
Some students seek to chart their own path rather than select a traditional major. The Interdisciplinary Studies major is intended to provide an opportunity and a structure for students who desire to develop their own major. Working with an academic advisor, students will develop an individualized plan that meets the Interdisciplinary Studies Major requirements.
The Interdisciplinary Studies major requires a minimum of 36 credit hours, across at least two (2) disciplines. Students must take or transfer in a minimum of 15 credit hours in each discipline. At least (18) credit hours of upper-division courses, with no presumption of waiver of specified prerequisites, must be taken from within the two disciplines. The program must also include either an internship or equivalent project, and a capstone or research course. No courses/credits assigned to the major may count toward meeting the general education core requirements. All students must earn a 2.0 GPA to graduate with the Interdisciplinary Studies major.
