Interdisciplinary Studies, B.A
The Interdisciplinary Studies Degree provides an opportunity for students to engage in an individualized course of study leading to a degree when one’s academic and professional goals are not accommodated by standard degree majors. The Interdisciplinary Studies Degree consists of correlated studies in two or more fields and provides integrated instruction comparable in quality and depth to regular major programs. It is not intended as a means of bypassing normal graduation requirements.
The minimum requirement for the Interdisciplinary Studies Degree is an approved program of 45 units, at least 30 units of which must be upper division work including a capstone course. A maximum of six independent study units may be included in the Interdisciplinary Studies Degree Program. Any exception to this criteria must be approved in writing by the Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs designee.
