Interdisciplinary Studies Major
The College of Arts and Sciences has created this major for motivated students who are interested in pursuing a major that is not housed in a single department or defined by a traditional discipline. The Interdisciplinary Major allows a student and a willing faculty advisor to construct a major that gathers appropriate courses around a significant theme or research question.
The important parameters of the major include:
-
Half of the proposed major must be courses from a single academic discipline as listed in the Undergraduate Catalog under which you matriculated.
-
The major may have courses from no more than four academic disciplines.
-
Half the credit hours of the major must be at the 3000 or 4000 level.
-
The major must include a three-hour senior capstone project as an Independent Study course or a senior seminar from an academic discipline listed in your Undergraduate Catalog.
Interested students should contact Professor Kurt Stadtwald, Interdisciplinary Major Director, for more information, planning materials, and an application.
