The Bachelor of Interdisciplinary Studies program (BIS) is a university-wide degree program that enables students to create interdisciplinary specialties that prepare them for careers in a world that increasingly bridges academic disciplines. Students pursue two subject-area concentrations that represent academic interests they wish to integrate into a meaningful program. A four-course core offers students the intellectual tools to identify connections between their concentrations and engage in interdisciplinary problem solving.
Students who choose Communication as one of their subject-area concentrations must take 15 semester hours of courses, including COM 100 plus COM 225 or COM 259, and 12 additional semester hours, all of which must be upper-division courses.
