Interdisciplinary Arts - Chester College of New England

Interdisciplinary Arts from Chester College of New England is a Campus Bachelor Interdisciplinary Studies degree that prepares you for a Science career. The Department of Interdisciplinary Studies allows the student to effectively design his/her own major. The Interdisciplinary Arts Major is for those students who have interests in more than one discipline or department, and who are motivated to combine those interests in an individualized program of study. This major offers students the opportunity to take an active role in planning their curriculum. Working closely with a faculty advisor, students select sequences of courses from two or more departments and build a unique program that best addresses their individual needs and interests. The Major is set up to meet the needs of those students whose interests combine visual art or creative writing with an area in the liberal arts (for example, printmaking and/or creative writing combined with literature) and also the needs of those students interested in bringing together multiple interests from a range of creative fields (combining fine art, photography, and creative writing, for example). In other majors, the department defines all course requirements. In the Interdisciplinary Arts Major, requirements are individually determined. This means that it is the student's responsibility, in close consultation with her/his adviser, to select the most appropriate courses for each semester. By the end of the sophomore year, students will have articulated their areas of interest and laid out a clear program of courses for their major. The capstone experience for the major is the Senior Project. This is when each student brings together in a final creative project his or her artistic and academic passions, refined with knowledge, understanding, and insight gained from several semesters of interdisciplinary study and creative work.
