Why Study Interdisciplinary Studies?
An interdisciplinary studies degree offers a flexible and efficient path to graduation, especially for students who have transferred multiple times or accumulated several minors without completing a major. An interdisciplinary degree develops students’ ability to synthesize diverse perspectives and apply interdisciplinary thinking in both academic and professional settings. It’s particularly valuable for working professionals who have reached career advancement limits due to their lack of a degree. The Bachelor of Science in Interdisciplinary Studies provides a pathway to both professional growth and graduate education, including MBA programs.
