Boise State University offers a Master of Science degree
program in Interdisciplinary Studies. In consultation with faculty,
students may combine courses from more than one department to create an
individualized program of educational experience. The program is not a
substitute for a traditional master's degree; rather, it is intended for
students with broader interests in several fields or those whose career
goals do not match fully with a single, identifiable academic unit or
department. Emphasis is placed on continued intellectual and cultural
development in a constantly changing society where new intellectual and
career interests may extend over several traditional specializations.
Students with a primary interest in biology have in the past
successfully created Interdisciplinary Master's programs by merging
biology with public affairs, with chemistry, and with geosciences. For
more information, please refer to the graduate catalog.
