Overview

The Bachelor of Science in Interdisciplinary Studies is aimed at students who are ready for a challenge. Yes, there are other paths to a Northeastern degree, but if you're willing to work hard in a rigorous, boundary-pushing program, Interdisciplinary Studies might be what you’re after. We are looking for intellectually curious self-starters who are not content with neat academic boundaries.

How does the personalized curriculum work?

Working closely with your advisor and the program lead, you’ll develop expertise in areas that both inspire you and are sought by employers. For instance, employers value workers who can combine management with psychology to know what truly motivates customers. So why not blend management and psychology in your personalized curriculum? Employers also prize professionals who can merge digital communication and analytics to craft and deliver compelling keynote addresses at company conventions. So maybe your personalized curriculum will integrate digital communication and analytics. Meanwhile, top-tier hospitals have a pressing need for folks who can integrate healthcare administration, project management, finance, and accounting. So why not work with your advisor and program lead to merge these three areas into your personalized curriculum? The choice is yours, and the possibilities are endless.

This program is visa-eligible at Northeastern University campuses in the United States and Canada.

Disclaimer: Visa eligibility may vary by location and individual circumstances. Applicants are responsible for verifying the most up-to-date visa regulations with the relevant visa or immigration agency before applying.
