The flexible Bachelor of Multidisciplinary Studies (BMS) program allows you to design an individualized program of study that connects what you've already done with what you're preparing to do. You can choose from two pathways focusing on an area of concentration, or taking a broader approach, with smaller areas of emphasis. By offering over 30 concentrations, you can find the area that fits your interest and future aspirations. If you're already learning in one or more areas, we can apply that to your degree.
People often ask what we mean by "multidisciplinary." We think it's the best way to give our students what they need in contemporary society. Our program allows you to be creative and to develop different points of view, strengthening your ability to think critically about complex problems - skills needed in today's workplace.
Degree Options that Fit Your Life
Finding the best degree option for you is an important decision. Whether you'd like your degree to focus on one area of concentration, or diversify your focus in three different subjects without a concentration, we're here to help you decide and plan!
