Overview

The emphasis in Gender Studies provides graduate students the opportunity to complete a tailored program of study that integrates knowledge and scholarship from gender studies and one or more additional discipline(s) traditionally associated with a Master of Science.

The Interdisciplinary MA/MS emphasis in Community Based Research will prepare students to work with communities and community-based organizations to support data driven decision-making.

The program includes a broad range of technical skills development and theoretical inquiry. Students, as part of their curriculum, will take community-based research courses, and partner with local community organizations to work on real-world initiatives to support local decision-making.

Outcomes

Students in this Interdisciplinary Studies program at the University of Mississippi will find themselves prepared for a variety of positions in local and federal government, research, and non-profit sectors.

Programme Structure

Thesis and non-thesis option:

The thesis option prepares students to conduct research/scholarship needed for research careers and doctoral study. Thesis students conduct original research, completed in entirety during enrollment in the Master of Science in interdisciplinary studies degree, which integrates their two or more selected disciplines.
The non-thesis option equips students to apply cross-disciplinary knowledge. Students complete a capstone experience in which they gain applied experience integrating two or more disciplines.
Students design a capstone experience, with guidance from a committee of faculty representing each of the selected disciplines, to integrate their unique cross-disciplinary expertise in a non-research setting to address a particular theme or goal directly related to real-world problems/needs.
