富兰克林艺术与科学学院的任何一个系均未提供合适专业的艺术与人文学科学术兴趣的学生，可以攻读跨学科研究（IDS）的文学学士学位。这是一门文科学位，其主要课程集中在社会科学领域。该专业包括11个高年级（3000级及以上）课程，并为学生提供两个可供选择的方向：心理学和社会学。与计划的跨学科性质保持一致，学生不仅可以选择自己的专修课程，而且可以选择其他与专修领域互补的社会科学学科来从事主要课程。
A student with academic interests in the arts and humanities for which no suitable major is offered by any single department in the Franklin College of Arts and Sciences may pursue a Bachelor of Arts degree in Interdisciplinary Studies (IDS). <br><br>The IDS major at the University of Georgia is a rigorous one that requires early planning on the student's part and coordination with the IDS program director. It is not designed for students who have taken a number of courses in various areas or cannot settle on a major, but for students who have a plan for a course of study that meets certain requirements they have set for themselves.<br><br>Students take a minimum of 24 semester hours of coursework consisting of a coherent pattern of courses in two or more disciplines, at least one of which resides within Franklin College. A Senior Thesis (3 credit hours) written on a topic of special interest to the student completes the degree.
