Maximize your graduate degree.

We offer interdisciplinary graduate programs that offer a more comprehensive education and training for career-focused students. The programs combine learning from different colleges and departments and encourage a deeper, multi-disciplinary approach to solving scientific problems.

Adding a minor in another discipline can also expand your knowledge and career options. For example, our biological data science minor can give students who have a life science major more flexibility and experience beyond biology, biochemistry, biohealth science or microbiology and can even enhance your employment prospects. Our top-ranked minor in actuarial science in the Department of Mathematics helps prepare students for a career as a professional actuary in the financial or insurance industries.

Students can pursue an interdisciplinary M.S. and/or Ph.D. degree, a minor or graduate certificate. Due to their interdisciplinary nature, some programs are housed in the Graduate School, while others reside in a college or department.
