    "description": "<p>The Master of Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies program allows students the flexibility to develop an individually tailored plan of study using courses traditionally associated with a Master of Arts (Arts, Humanities, Social Sciences, etc.). This track can combine a variety of concentrations and culminates in a capstone experience or research thesis, depending on the student's goals.</p> <br /> <p>The Master of Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies is an excellent program for a variety of twenty-first century endeavors. By combining the knowledge from at least two disciplines, supported by cross-disciplinary electives, students precisely define their own area of expertise. This unique option is ideal for students who have varied interests that can be connected by a common theme or goal.</p> <br /> <p>The Nonthesis Option culminates in a capstone experience that prepares students for applied, non-research oriented careers.</p> <br /> <p>The Thesis Option culminates in a scholarly publication that includes original research undertaken during your time as a graduate student. This provides excellent preparation for the future pursuit of a doctoral degree or research-oriented career.</p> <br /><p>The Master of Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies may be completed fully online, and newly admitted students choosing to complete this program exclusively via UCF online classes may enroll with a reduction in campus-based fees.</p>",
