乔治敦学院提供跨学科研究专业课程，使有限数量的合格学生有机会修读融合了多个学科的专业。跨学科研究（IDST）专业通常是在大二学年的第二个学期期间在综合学科的教师的帮助下开发的。该专业仅限于GPA累计为3.5的学生。该计划的前提是学生的大多数核心要求均已得到满足。一个可行的IDST专业建议必须涵盖学院的两个或多个部门课程。申请人必须表明，所提议的专业不能容纳在现有的部门专业内，也不能通过现有的专业与未成年人的组合来容纳。每个部门的一名普通教师必须作为主要顾问和论文阅读者参与。申请人应从每个学科中选择一个平衡
The Interdisciplinary Studies Major is a key part of the College of Arts & Science's strategy to enhance undergraduate research and to support interdisciplinary approaches to complex problems. The College has awarded a degree in Interdisciplinary Studies (AB-IDST) for the last several decades. Students in the Major design their own academic programs around big research questions, guided by two College faculty mentors and a dean, who leads the program. <br><br>Interdisciplinary Studies Majors integrate methods and ways of knowing from distinct disciplines in order to approach meaningful and insistent questions. As Peter Hans Kolvenbach, S.J., former Father General of the Society of Jesus, has noted, the interdisciplinary approach is the only significant way to heal the fracture of knowledge that results from the separation and isolation of the work of the disciplines. Majors develop their plan and approach to their research with the guidance of their advisors. The thesis project may be a traditional written thesis or may be an experimental or creative project (with the approval of support of the faculty advisors and the Program Director).<br><br>The Interdisciplinary Studies (IDST) major is normally developed during the sophomore year with the aid of faculty from the disciplines to be integrated and in consultation with the Director of the Interdisciplinary Studies Major, Dr. Bernie Cook. Sophomore applicants must have completed the majority of their Core requirements.<br><br>A viable proposal for an IDST major must demonstrate true interdisciplinary by spanning two or more fields in the College. A full-time faculty member from each of the anchoring departments or programs must be involved as a major advisor and thesis reader. The relevant department chair or program director must support the commitment of each faculty advisor to guide the major's curricular and research choices.
