Program Overview

An Interdisciplinary Major is a course of study which consists of 36 credit hours of course work beyond the 1000 level cutting across disciplinary lines but related program by a clear theme or unifying principle. Students who plan to graduate with an interdisciplinary Major degree must meet with the Coordinator of Interdisciplinary Studies to identify learning goals and then compose a preliminary course of study with which to approach a potential Program Director. With their Program Directors, students will refine their course of study—their program—in a written proposal. The proposal must indicate:

 

  • The professor who has agreed to serve as Program Director,
  • Two additional professors who have agreed to serve with the Program Director on an advisory committee, and
  • The proposed programme, identified by course numbers and titles.

Final approval of each proposed program will rest with the Interdisciplinary Studies Committee. Normally, approval of the program will be sought by the end of the student's second year. Exceptionally, proposals may be entertained as late as the end of the third year. The Coordinator with the Program Director will monitor the student’s interdisciplinary course of study at regular intervals during the third and fourth years. Accordingly, the Coordinator will present a written report on the student's progress to the Dean of Faculty and the Registrar at the end of the student's third year and at the end of the first and second semesters of the last year.
The decision to award an Interdisciplinary Major degree will be made by recommendation of the student's advisory committee
