The Bachelor of Science in Professional Studies (BSPS) meets the needs of students whose interests are situated between two or more disciplines and gives them the opportunity to explore multiple subjects, perspectives, and methodologies in a variety of academic and professional fields. Because the BSPS program can be completed entirely online or through a combination of online and on-campus courses, it is especially suited for students whose work-life situation requires more flexible scheduling. Most BSPS applicants have already earned an associate's degree or prior college credit. Students pursue an interdisciplinary program of study that requires completion of a concentration in either Information Technology or Organizational Leadership. These concentrations equip students with knowledge of management information systems or with management and communications skills in preparation for work in business, industry, and government. Students enrolled in the BSPS program may not double-major at ETSU.
