What Is BDIC?

What is BDIC?  What makes it unique?

Students in BDIC design "individual concentrations"--their own majors.  This lets you design your curriculum around your intellectual passions and your career interests.

BDIC is unique because the students are not just fulfilling requirements given to them by academic authorities.   

The theory behind BDIC is that knowledge can never be completely mapped out in academic disciplines.  Some students need extra room to pursue creative interests that are outside the box. 

Recent BDIC concentrations include "Entrepreneurship and Information Technology," "Creative Writing and Religion," "Sustainability and Community Development," "Asian Studies," "Film Production and Criticism," and "Performing Arts Management."
