Interdisciplinary Studies at UCCS

An interdisciplinary degree allows students to merge multiple interests to create a unique degree.

About the Department

The Interdisciplinary Studies (INDS) program at UCCS provides a path for students with a specific personal or professional interest that cannot be met within the traditional degree structure or students with disparate credit hours trying to find a way to complete their degree.

INDS provides opportunities for students to pursue compelling interdisciplinary directions in their research and teaching.

"I am far more confident in my ability to stand on my own two feet as a teacher and contribute to the future generation of students that is slated to shape the country. I consider my Capstone to have been a resounding success and I am thanking my lucky stars every day for the career opportunity that I have been provided by way of the Interdisciplinary Major at UCCS, as well as all of my professors that I have had the privilege of working with over the course of the last four years".
