Interdisciplinary Studies is a 33 credit hour Master of Arts program of study with a diverse mix of courses, from methodological seminars to thematic courses, independent studies to internships. The 9 credit hours of foundational courses lead to a self-designed curriculum focused on a particular theme, problem, or mode of inquiry.
Students will construct an innovative curriculum that crosses traditional disciplinary boundaries, often to answer a specific question or to address a theme of interest to the student. Graduates will gain an in-depth understanding of graduate-level research and current trends in interdisciplinary scholarship, as well as preparation for advancement in their chosen career field.
Come meet faculty and discuss the advantages of an NU master's degree at the Graduate Open House on March 17th.
