The Graduate Program in Liberal Studies (LST) invites those candidates who
have already attained a graduate degree (either a MA or PhD in Liberal Studies,
Education, the humanities or social sciences) and who wish to extend or advance
their graduate study in an interdisciplinary program to apply for admission in
the program leading to the Post-Master’s Certificate in Interdisciplinary
Studies. It allows qualified individuals to take five courses (fifteen credit
hours) in a curriculum that they design to meet their interests and needs.
The post-graduate certificate gives you the freedom to outline a program that
suits your interests.
Certificate recipients will have successfully completed a total of 15
graduate credits, with a) at least one inter-disciplinary team taught, LST
course offered by Liberal Studies and b) any additional 12 graduate credits
(normally four more courses) that are approved by the Director of Liberal
Studies. These additional 12 credits may be in LST or in at least two
disciplines.
Why would you pursue a post-master’s LST certificate?
Perhaps you have a Master’s degree in Education and are now interested in taking
a series of courses in a certain content area.
Perhaps you have an MA or a PhD in a certain discipline, and now wish to pursue
the many relationships between that field with others. To do this, you might be
interested in taking a number of interdisciplinary, team taught LST courses.
Perhaps you have developed an interest in a certain topic and wish to explore it
from the point of view of various disciplines.
