The Bachelor of Interdisciplinary Studies Program at Arizona State University was created in 1993 to give students the ability to tailor their own degree. This unique program allows students to integrate two different fields of study into one degree, enabling them to obtain a broader educational spectrum. This degree provides students with four Bachelor of Interdisciplinary Studies classes specifically created to provide students with an avenue to see the connections between their two selected fields of study, as well as enabling them to obtaining 18 credit hours each for the two selected concentration areas.

Bachelor of Interdisciplinary Studies Program

My Pursuit of an Interdisciplinary degree began when I first started school at Arizona State University. Like many students freshly graduated from high school, I had no idea what I wanted to do with my college career. After a two year exploration I had come to realize what my interests were, and decided the School of Letters and Sciences could provide me with the best education through their Bachelor of Interdisciplinary Studies Program. Being in this program actually opens a lot doors for Arizona State University students. The endless list of study options to choose from allows each student to walk away with their own "personalized" degree. Since I already had an interest in business, it was only natural to select it as one of my fields of study. My second choice was selected because I wanted a broader concentration that did not limit my applications in the real world. Pairing business and communications together was the perfect choice for me since both can be applied to a wide range of career fields. What makes a degree in Interdisciplinary Studies so appealing is its versatility and ability to provide the exact education a student wants. A degree through this program can prepare a student for many different job fields instead of just one localized area.
