An interdisciplinary studies major is designed to offer students the opportunity to form a course of study across several disciplines. There are no courses specifically designated as interdisciplinary. Instead, students can choose a concentration in one or two of three different areas of courses offerings in: Humanities, Math and Science, and Business.
There is a long and fruitful history of scholars exploring multiple areas in support of their projects. This major is suited for students whose academic or personal goals require that they take courses from a number of different disciplines across the university and who are best served by not majoring in any particular field. HCU’s program offers a wide range of flexibility to choose courses drawing from different disciplines of study.
The Interdisciplinary Studies major is an option for students seeking a degree that provides a broad background applicable to a variety of careers. It can also be a stepping stone in the pursuit of a master’s degree or further education toward a specific career.
