Self-Designed Major: Individually Designed/Interdisciplinary Studies
University of Wisconsin - Superior
09/05/2012
The self-designed major gives students the flexibility of designing their own major to suit their unique interests and career goals. Working closely with an advisor, students choose classes from a variety of subjects to create a custom course of study. UW-Superior offers the oldest and most-established self-designed major program in the UW System... Students may choose from the following options: Interdisciplinary - Comprehensive (no minor required) minimum 51 credits, 22 of which must be upper division and must be interdisciplinary with at least three, but no more than four separate discipline areas. Individually-Designed - Non-comprehensive (minor required) minimum 33 credits, 18 of which must be upper division. May be either interdisciplinary or only one discipline. Courses may include online, hybrid or on-campus (depending on areas of study and modalities offered), and upon approval, students name their own major with the title appearing on their official transcript.

PLEASE NOTE:

If there are fewer than eight enrollments in the training program, only the "Enrollments" number will be displayed; all other data is hidden in order to help protect the students' identities. The "Employment Outcomes" are calculated using information from Wisconsin's Unemployment Insurance Wage database. Most employers are required to report certain employment information to the State of Wisconsin, including quarterly wage information for their employees. Students whose information could not be verified in this database are excluded from these outcomes. If a "0" shows for any of these outcomes, it means that none of the students' information could be verified.

MAKING SENSE OF THE EMPLOYMENT OUTCOMES:

"Average quarterly wages" means the total wages earned in a three-month period by all students who completed the program ("completers"), divided by the total number of completers.

"Median quarterly wages" means all the completers' quarterly wages are placed in order from lowest to highest and then we identify the student's wages in the middle. This information is provided because averages can be greatly influenced by really high and low wage earners.

To estimate monthly wages, divide the quarterly wages by three.
