The Integrated Studies program offers students two flexible advisory paths towards degree completion: students may combine two minors with other required coursework, or combine credits from four different disciplines, in order to craft a specialized degree reflecting their areas of interest. This new program in Integrated Studies includes courses in the Sciences, Math/Business/Design, and Social/Behavioral Sciences – culminating in a Bachelor of Science degree.
Students work on a capstone project, which will serve as the culmination of their individualized integrated studies. Students will research and write about a topic which illustrates the relationships of meaning, interaction, and interpretation within their emphasis or multiple areas of study.
