Why Multi-Disciplinary
This program is designed for those who have completed an associate’s degree and anyone with earned college credits and has not completed another bachelor’s degree. It is a non-licensure degree option that allows flexibility for students maintaining family, military, and employment obligations and is broad-based to allow for a more individualized approach to degree completion
Students have the ability to select the courses that they want to take as part of their major from a range of courses in the discipline. Students may be able to complete the concentration completely online and they will write a research paper in the major Capstone course.
This concentration allows students to combine any two APSU minors. It may serve as an appropriate stepping-stone for admission into graduate school. Students may only have one minor from the College of Business for this concentration.
Courses in this concentration are taught by faculty that teach in the minors selected for the concentration.
