Program Overview

Solving complex, real-world problems begins with the ability to work collaboratively and think across multiple disciplines. Governors State’s Bachelor of Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies facilitates the development of skills in multimodal thinking, expanding beyond discipline-specific methodologies while developing knowledge of subject matter relevant to specific fields and problems. The IDSS program offers transfer and adult students a customizable degree plan, which can be completed entirely online or on GSU's main campus, including a selection of week day, weekend or hybrid courses. The program is designed for completion over the course of three semesters.

  • First semester: Learn the foundational skills and knowledge required to become a disciplinary insider while learning interdisciplinary problem-solving methods. Also, remember to enroll in our new Career Planning and Decision Making course, which acts as an entry point into the program that helps students identify their marketable strength and investigate possible career options.
  • Second semester: Develop skills further through hands-on application, including research, group projects, and an optional internship.
  • Third semester: Synthesize knowledge through the IDSS capstone experience, in which students conceive, complete, and articulate their work in a final, cumulative project.
