    About Master of Interdisciplinary Studies

    The Master of Arts in interdisciplinary studies provides graduate students the opportunity to complete a tailored program of study that integrates knowledge and scholarship from two or more disciplines traditionally associated with a Master of Arts. Students seeking graduate study in emerging interdisciplinary fields orcross-disciplinary specialties for which the University of Mississippi does not yet offer a defined degree select two or more concentrations to integrate as they develop mastery.

    Students may select a thesis or nonthesis track. The thesis track requires completion of a thesis that reflects original research conducted during their enrollment in the Master of Arts in interdisciplinary studies. The nonthesis track requires a capstone project that applies the cross-disciplinary knowledge.
