Multidisciplinary Studies Program Description
The Multidisciplinary Studies (MDS) degree program is structured to meet the educational needs of adult learners. MDS provides students with a variety of options to meet university requirements for an undergraduate degree grounded in the liberal arts or sciences. The program provides a larger number of course selections so that a student can tailor his/her degree to specific career specialization areas. This degree program includes a broad-based general education requirement as well as an “umbrella specialization” component allowing students to choose a specialty area within a larger structured liberal arts and sciences curriculum. Advisors and/or faculty will assist students in developing a comprehensive curriculum that fulfills their educational and career needs.
