IS3D Departments and Coursework
Departments and Coursework
Over 50 departments from across campus participate in the IS3D program. The exciting part of our major is choosing which three disciplines will be part of your academic program, and how the skills you learn in these disciplines will help you achieve your academic and career goals. Departments in our program range from language departments like Spanish and French to departments in the hard sciences like Biology and Chemistry. We also include departments from the School of Education like Child and Family Development, and from the College of Arts and Letters such as the Department of Geography.
