Bachelor of Science in Integrated Studies

Program Overview

The Integrated Studies, BS provides students with maximum flexibility and multiple pathways through the curriculum, to complete a degree through the combination of two course clusters.

  • One cluster must be based on a CLAS minor or certificate in the CU Denver catalog. The cluster must be at least 15 credits, and students can add additional courses (up to 21 credits total in one discipline) to either meet this 15-credit minimum or fulfill the minor or certificate’s requirements if they exceed 15 credits.
  • The second cluster must also be at least 15 credits. This cluster is more flexible and can be constructed in one of three ways:
    • it can be based on a minor or certificate in the catalog (within CLAS or another school or college)
    •  it can be constructed by the student using a group of courses from a variety of disciplines that form a coherent body of knowledge (an interdisciplinary cluster)
    •  it can be based on a pre-formed thematic cluster with an already-approved group of classes.
  • One of the two clusters must be composed of courses from Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Environmental Sciences, Mathematics, Statistics, Computer Science, Economics or Engineering. The cluster may be a minor or certificate in one of the areas mentioned previously. An additional six credits outside the clusters must also be in one of the above-defined areas. ?
  • Students also complete an introductory and capstone course bringing together the learning from their two clusters. The required courses will give students the skills they need to describe the purpose, relevance, rigor, and innovation of their degree to potential employers.

This degree is also designed to help students integrate previously completed coursework to design a novel major. It is especially helpful for students who have switched majors, colleges or institutions, and are looking for a meaningful way to complete their degree.

These degree requirements are subject to periodic revision by the academic department, and the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences reserves the right to make exceptions and substitutions as judged necessary in individual cases. Therefore, the College strongly urges students to consult regularly with their major advisor and CLAS advisor to confirm the best plans of study before finalizing them.
