BIS Program

The Interdisciplinary Studies program at Arizona State University is a new type of degree offered. This program allows students to concentrate on two areas of discipline rather than the one discipline major.

I chose to enter this program because I wanted to merge two areas of study into one major. Thus, I combined the disciplines of marketing and mass communication into my interdisciplinary degree. With this degree, I feel more confident with each discipline and can offer the best of each.

By taking the Interdisciplinary core classes, I have become a more well-rounded, more knowledgeable individual with a lot to offer. I have taken core classes including Foundations of Interdisciplinary Studies, Interdisciplinary Inquiry, and a Senior Seminar.

These classes have helped prepare me for life after graduation and working within an interdisciplinary career.
