Interdisciplinary Courses

As part of Hofstra 100, the University's strategic plan, we are pleased to announce new interdisciplinary course offerings designed to bring faculty expertise together in the classroom. These courses give you the opportunity to explore topics across subject areas while also completing degree requirements.

Most problems and virtually all of society’s major challenges are complex, multifaceted, and require diverse perspectives and skills to resolve. Interdisciplinary education increases both job readiness and flexibility for careers of the future. Hofstra’s long history and tradition of providing an excellent liberal arts education, together with the wide variety of disciplines that are focused on careers in business, engineering, communication, and health care, position the University to provide relevant and integrated interdisciplinary courses and programs.

Hofstra University has a dynamic course schedule information system. View available course schedules.
