Answer
There are many advantages to earning a degree spanning multiple disciplines, including:
- Better qualify for the job. Employers with a unique approach to their workforce may require a unique set of skills, and an interdisciplinary studies degree with relevant concentrations can help show you’ve got what it takes.
- Adaptability. The modern economy is always in flux and there isn’t always a degree relevant to every new opportunity. A multidisciplinary focus can help you adapt more smoothly to changes within your field.
- Earn your degree faster. Depending on the prior college classes you’ve taken, you may be able to transfer much more of your credit compared to a traditional bachelor’s degree program.
