With approval of the concerned departments, a University College–Newark 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, chosen by the student to satisfy a particular educational objective. Recent interdisciplinary majors designed by students, with faculty assistance, have included psychology/management, mathematics/accounting, political science/criminal justice, and history/philosophy.
A form for submission of a proposed interdisciplinary major program is available in the Office of the Dean of Student Affairs.
