A Degree Built Just for You
Our lives rarely follow a linear path, and so we know that the degree you started earning at UMBC may not be the degree you need now. That’s why we’re proud to announce that we’ve just created a brand new degree track within our Individualized Study Program for Finish Line students like you.
The new Multidisciplinary Studies program will allow you to design your curriculum semester-by-semester with the guidance of a faculty advisor, which sets you up to create a customized degree that fits where you want to go in your career.
