Integrated Science

The integrated science program provides you with an opportunity to pursue studies that go beyond the traditional major in a single field of sciences.

Why Study Integrated Science?

As an integrated science major at USD, you will learn to comprehensively explore issues, ideas, artifacts and events related to science. Our curriculum helps you learn to break down complex topics and apply engineering design to create solutions to problems.
