Overview

Interdisciplinary Studies at Texas Tech University is not a substitute for a traditional master’s degree; rather, it is designed for students with broader interests in several fields or for those whose career goals do not match fully with a single identifiable academic unit or department. Emphasis is placed on continued intellectual and cultural development in a constantly changing society in which new career interests may extend over several traditional specializations.

Interdisciplinary Studies is divided into two categories:

PRE-DESIGNED programs integrate across several disciplines defined by their thematic topic. University-wide program are headquartered in the Graduate School, whereas more narrowly focused programs are housed within specific academic departments or colleges (e.g., Master of Engineering, Master of Science in Bioengineering).
SELF-DESIGNED master's degrees allow graduate students the freedom to design a degree that integrates areas and courses from the existing graduate programs. The purpose of this integration allows students to create a program that best fits their interests and career aspirations that might not be defined in a traditional disciplinary boundaries.
