Interdisciplinary Major Interdisciplinary Majors

Interdisciplinary majors are designed to tie together the offerings and major requirements of two separate departments by focusing on a theme that integrates the two areas. Such majors usually fulfill most or all of the requirements of two separate departments and usually entail a special project to achieve a synthesis of the disciplines involved. Students may develop an interdisciplinary major by consulting with the chairs of the two major departments. Nine areas of study designated with a Interdisciplinary Majoralready have specified requirements.

Student Designed Major Student-designed Majors

Students who wish to design their own major will work with two faculty members to connect the disciplinary strengths and opportunities offered in at least two departments. A culminating project is required of students designing their own majors.
