Bachelor of Arts Major in Interdisciplinary Studies with Area of Emphasis

Program Overview

The Interdisciplinary Studies major revolves around nine areas of emphasis. These are Arts, Business, Health, Humanities, Organizational Leadership, Social and Behavioral Sciences, Technology, Women's Studies, and our Option II: Applied Entrepreneurship area of emphasis (AAS or AOT degree required). Students are generally drawn to a particular area as it matches their personal interests, current or future occupation, and/or graduate/professional school plans. In close consultation with their academic advisor, students develop a program of study containing courses offered by multiple departments that clearly relate to the selected area and also expose them to important applied, general, or closely related specialized topics of study. For example, a student may be very much interested in opening a fine arts studio that focuses on teaching art and music to developmentally disabled adults. Such a student will benefit from our degree program as a practical alternative to the traditional art and music degree because they would be free to take necessary classes in art and music while also taking valuable courses in physical education, behavioral sciences, and business.

Below is a description of each area of emphasis. Please reach out to Ms. Heather Stancil or Dr. Craig Robertson to schedule a phone, Zoom, or in-office consultation to discuss your interests and the options available to you in the Interdisciplinary Studies major.
