Interdisciplinary majors allow students to hone the specific skills necessary for the career they want to pursue. Unlike other majors that are more theoretical, interdisciplinary courses are typically more practical and designed to teach students about the career they are passionate about.
Interdisciplinary studies promote the application of different concepts, theories, and ways of thinking to problems existing in different industries. In some schools, students have the opportunity to customize their course options to match their unique interests across multiple disciplines. This is ideal for students who have multiple passions they want to combine into one specialization.
Since interdisciplinary studies allow students to explore about multiple areas, students are more likely to be viewed as ideal candidates for their versatility compared to others. Students with interdisciplinary studies backgrounds will have an easier time transitioning between different industries thanks to their well-rounded education.
