Bachelor of Arts in Interdisciplinary

Program Overview

In addition to university education requirements, students will complete an individualized program of study agreed upon by student and faculty advisor. A student wanting to develop a General Studies Concentration in the Interdisciplinary BA must request a faculty memeber to serve as the academic advisor. The faculty advisor, upon agreeing to serve, may require that a second or third advisor be secured for the other fields to be included in the Interdisciplinary BA.

The student and advisor(s) develop an agreed upon Program of Study. The Program of Study must contain a minimum of 36 semester units, 23 of which must be upper division. The student is also required to complete a senior seminar course, which may be specifically developed for the student's individualized BA.

The Interdisciplinary Studies Programs at CSUB allow students to examine concepts, issues, and perspectives that cross traditional boundaries of study, and to combine elements of distinct disciplines in a unique way. Currently, students can choose to specialize in Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies, or choose from available specializations in Ethnic and Area Studies; or, working closely with faculty coordinators, a student can craft a unique field of study that combines correlated studies in two or more fields to earn a Bachelor of Arts degree in Interdisciplinary Studies.
