Do you find yourself looking for a cross-functional degree that blends courses from two or more academic areas? You’re a perfect candidate for our interdisciplinary studies major!

Hoping to work in a church? Your skill set would be well complimented by psychology courses. Interested in conquering the marketing world? A strong proficiency in communication studies or studio arts could help you get there. Eager to thrive in the health and rehabilitation industry? Consider taking courses in exercise science and biology.

This is a major all about options and versatility.

Class of 2018

Yes, I received my degree, but I also received so many more skills I took with me after college through the staff that I worked with and learned from. Additionally, the way that Christ was integrated throughout my undergraduate education is something that was so impactful. The education and experience I had here is something that is difficult to find anywhere else.
