The Bachelor of Science in Integrated Studies degree is an interdisciplinary degree program with instruction offered on the 澳门六合彩规律论坛 campus as well as online. This degree is extremely flexible and is an excellent option for students seeking a broad-based educational experience or wanting to custom-design a degree program.
This program is a favorite among adult learners with college-level learning derived from appropriate work experience. Students who have accumulated a variety of course credits that are not easily applied to a particular degree program often find that they can be used in this program, allowing them to graduate earlier.
Elective course requirements for adult learners are often fulfilled through the Prior Learning Assessment (PLA) program, which evaluates college-level learning gained through work, training, certifications, licensure, military, and other programs. (Please see Prior Learning Assessment for more information.) Details about the PLA program should be discussed with the student's advisor.

- Communication Studies

- Health and Human Performance Studies
- Leadership Studies

Sample study subjects include child and family studies, communication studies, criminal justice, cultural studies, English or writing, health, human sciences, information technology, journalism or public relations, leadership studies, nutrition, office management, political science, psychology, sociology, teaching and learning, women's studies, and many more.
As part of the student learning outcomes of the program, the student will be able to identify and evaluate insights from multiple disciplines by applying the interdisciplinary research process and synthesizing connections between experiences outside the classroom and academic study.
Finally, successful students will develop information literacy and accurately locate, evaluate, and synthesize information sources.
