ISSM offers highly motivated, self-directed students the opportunity to develop an individualized, interdisciplinary course of study. Unlike other undergraduate programs, ISSM students must convincingly demonstrate that the knowledge, skills, and abilities they need for their academic and career goals can only be achieved by combining courses, learning outcomes, and other learning experiences offered by two or more CSUMB academic units. As an ISSM student, you will work with the ISSM director and at least two other faculty disciplinary advisors to create a major proposal that synthesizes multiple fields. Once a field of study has been confirmed, we help you carry out a learning plan that adapts your education to your unique career goals and plans for the future.
