Second Semester of 2026 Announcement of Interdisciplinary Major Application

An interdisciplinary major is a program in which students, while completing their primary major during their enrollment period, combine two or more departments or academic fields, or connect them around specific themes. Students who complete the minimum required credits (36–81 credits) for the program will be recognized as having a second major and will be awarded two degrees upon graduation.
