Explore Your Interests
The Bachelor of Arts in Interdisciplinary Arts Studies (BA-IAS) is a unique undergraduate program for students who wish to pursue future careers in arts media and technology. Instead of a traditional major, students select three fields of specialization representing one of two paths: Arts Media or Arts Technology. Areas of study include digital media production, creative media industries, theatrical and sound design, motion graphics and digital animation, and music technology.
Build Your Program
The three areas of specialization must each consist of a minimum of 18 hours in the chosen discipline, for a total of 54 credit hours. Two of the three specializations are chosen from existing minors in art, dance, music, or theatre. The third area will be in a media or technology area outside of the arts.

Career Possibilities
What sets the IAS program apart from other liberal arts degrees is the capstone class, which incorporates all areas of specialization into a final project of your choosing. Students can use this time to solidify their experience in the program with future career paths. Students who pursued a specialization in social sciences can explore how the arts impact social behavior; business-minded students can review the impact the arts has on the US economy. With creative thinking and a wide array of skill sets, the IAS program prepares students for an ever-changing job market.
