Interdisciplinary, BA

Print Degree Planner (opens a new window) |

Oklahoma Baptist University offers a general interdisciplinary degree. The areas of concentration are designed around three minors of the student’s choosing. This program is particularly suited for two groups of students - those who have very clearly identified career goals which require preparation in multiple areas and those whose career goals are not well defined and want to maximize their opportunities in multiple areas. Students in either of these two groups may elect to focus more intently on a single area in a graduate program.

Common Core for Bachelor of Arts - Credits: 35

No D’s will be accepted in the area of concentration and the supportive courses or in courses comprising majors and minors.
