Bachelor of Arts [B.A] [Interdisciplinary Studies] From Naropa University

The INTD program is structured to allow you to intentionally integrate knowledge and modes of thinking from two or three academic disciplines in a way that is driven by a complex real-world problem, research question, or focused area of interest. For example, a student interested in Food Justice may bring together Environmental Studies and Peace Studies to gain a deeper, Interdisciplinary understanding of the problem and how to work toward solutions. The INTD program allows you to chart your own course of study, but for this reason requires you to be an organized and self-directed student.

The INTD program is an academically-rigorous, research-based major that simultaneously seeks to develop your contemplative and critical thinking abilities. If your academic journey is driven by a complex real-world problem, research question, or focused area of interest that spans several areas of study, and you are interested in engaging in a research-based approach, than Interdisciplinary Studies might be right for you!
