With approval of the concerned departments, a Newark College of Arts and Sciences student may elect an interdisciplinary major for either the bachelor of arts (B.A.) or the bachelor of science (B.S.) degree. An interdisciplinary major includes courses selected from at least two disciplines. A student who wishes to pursue an interdisciplinary major must develop a complete program of study in consultation with the department chairs involved. A written copy of that program signed by the chairs must be filed with the Office of the Dean of Student Affairs. Unless it is subsequently amended with the written permission of the chairs, it constitutes the major program the student must complete for graduation.
A form for submission of a proposed interdisciplinary major program is available in the Office of the Dean of Student Affairs at http://www.rutgers-newark.rutgers.edu/dsanwk.
