Welcome to the Office of Interdisciplinary Programs! We are the office that provides administrative support to the many exciting interdisciplinary units in the College of Arts and Science (CAS). Among our many responsibilities, we maintain records, assist students and faculty, and coordinate dozens of events each semester.
In CAS, we have 20 interdisciplinary programs in areas as diverse as Health, Medicine, and Society, Africana Studies, Cognitive Science, Asian Studies. While each unit has its independent identity, you will often find them in close collaboration when it comes to curriculum, scholarship, and hosting co-curricular events. Collectively our programs offer a wide range of undergraduate majors and minors as well as graduate certificates and masters degrees.
What is an interdisciplinary program?
In addition to excellent traditional academic departments, the College of Arts and Sciences offers a wide range of curricular and other programs that span and incorporate many academic disciplines. Interdisciplinary work therefore requires students and faculty to work with a broad array of knowledge suited to approaching complex problems. For example, a faculty member in Women, Gender, and Sexuality might incorporate methods and knowledge from the fields of sociology, history, and psychology to understand workplace sexual harassment. A class in Latin American and Latino Studies might incorporate language, art, politics, and religion.

Students can choose an interdisciplinary major as their primary focus or combine interdisciplinary minors and majors with disciplinary programs or with each other. Imagine combining Global Studies with Sociology or combining Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies with Art or Psychology. Faculty have an academic “home” in a department, but maintain different levels of commitment and involvement with a range of interdisciplinary programs. You can get a sense of the richness of these programs by examining their websites. Just click onto any of our programs listed on the left-side of this page.
