Program Overview
The Interdisciplinary Studies Major provides students with an opportunity to complete a bachelor's degree with a foundation in practical thinking and ethics. Next you choose two concentrations among the humanities, the sciences or a business-oriented practicum. The program culminates with a capstone thesis, requiring you to cohesively unify your foundation with the two selected concentrations.
This approach empowers you to become a careful, critical thinker and to apply principles of integrity and ethical decision-making to address real-world problems. Graduates are prepared for a broad range of careers across fields such as marketing, supply chain management, social work, hospitality services and finance.
