CHOOSE YOUR PATH TO
CREATE IMPACT
As global economies continue to rapidly evolve, the College of Integrative Studies will be a place of interdisciplinary learning.
Students will learn to assemble knowledge from domains previously unconnected to attend to the challenges of the day.
Beyond integrating learning across disciplines, our students will benefit from combining lessons from the classroom with robust industry and real-world engagement.
Integrative studies is ultimately about connecting the possibilities across various paradigms and methods for unprecedented solutions.
