Interdisciplinary Studies
The online Master’s of Science in Interdisciplinary Studies is a degree program intended for students who desire to pursue a graduate-level education that provides a broad spectrum of study options, perspectives, and knowledge across multiple disciplines. This program is designed for students with more general interests or those whose career goals or desired competencies and outcomes do not fully match with a single identifiable academic program currently offered at Baylor.
Through this interdisciplinary graduate education approach, students tailor their course work across departments and colleges. In doing so, students have greater options to maximize their academic, research, and professional interests. This degree program emphasizes stackable course options to support continued intellectual development in a constantly changing workforce in which new career interests may extend over several traditional specializations, including but not limited to Business, Social Work, Communications, and Theology. Students who graduate from the online Master’s of Science in Interdisciplinary Studies professional program will represent the Christian identity and Baylor brand, allowing Baylor to extend its reach into a multidisciplinary workforce.
