Integrated Studies Degree Program
Oral Roberts University's Bachelor of Science in Integrated Studies program enables you to develop a degree completion plan personalized to you and your interests. This degree is an excellent option for students with a significant number of credit hours in two or three defined subject areas or for students who want to focus on multiple areas of study without completing a double major.
3 Reasons to Pursue Integrated Studies
1. You design your own path.
Whether you're a first-time or returning college student, we know it can be intimidating to pick just one path when you have so many interests, skills, and passions. At ORU, we want to allow you to nurture the gifts God has given you. With the Integrated Studies major, you can combine your passions and develop a degree plan that's just as unique as you and your calling! This means that whether you want to pursue communication and psychology or political science and criminal justice (whatever your interests are!), we can help you find the best path forward through our Integrated Studies program.
2. Your wide-ranging expertise can open doors for new opportunities.
With several areas of expertise, you will develop a different worldview—one that is unique to you. Your knowledge will provide you with the opportunity to view challenges differently and pursue creative problem-solving techniques. A multi-disciplinary framework with Integrated Studies will give you an edge on trailblazing new and innovative ideas.
3. You can use existing credits toward this degree.
Unlike other disciplines, the Integrated Studies major is highly flexible. If you already have college credit in another area of study, it can still advance you toward your degree as you additionally pursue another area of interest.
