The challenges of our complex world - the impact of AI on everyday life and work, climate change and inclusive societies, to name a few - require the ability to integrate knowledge and skills from more than one discipline. Interdisciplinary Studies allows you to design your own major, to think both creatively and critically. You can select complementary minors or majors in disciplines that reflect your interests and career goals, to create a professional profile unique to you.
Core coursework in the major explores diverse subjects that share a strong interdisciplinary theme. By emphasizing the practice of studying complex issues through a synthesis of different research methods and media, these courses equip students with skills in critical and creative thinking, problem-solving, and multi-faceted analysis.
