Purpose of the BIS Program:

Students who choose to complete their degree in the Bachelor of Integrated Studies (BIS) Program select three areas of emphases from different disciplines instead of a single major.  In their last two semesters, students write a capstone thesis in order to bring together their three areas of emphases in a single research project. 

The program best suits students who have developed a sense of their educational and life goals, and who are looking for ways to express those goals through a self-designed and self-directed university program. The BIS Program serves the needs of students who want to individualize or create a unique academic program; students who want to obtain a broad liberal education; and/or students who want to prepare for specific career goals and/or graduate school.
