Interdisciplinary studies

Special Individualized Programs - MA/PhD

The Special Individualized Programs (SIP) were created by the School of Graduate Studies to offer a limited number of exceptionally capable students the opportunity to pursue areas of research not covered by existing graduate programs. Interdisciplinary study is the hallmark of SIP. Read more about cross-disciplinary research currents.

Interdisciplinary Humanities PhD

Housed within the Centre for Interdisciplinary Studies in Society and Culture, the Humanities Doctoral Program: Interdisciplinary Studies in Society and Culture is jointly administered by the Faculty of Arts and Science and the Faculty of Fine Arts.  Serving as Concordia's premier site of interdisciplinary exploration since 1973, the Humanities Doctoral Program offers students an opportunity to pursue innovative interdisciplinary research and art based practices that span the Humanities, Social Sciences, and Fine Arts. 

Students entering the program with MFA degrees are able to include studio work as a component of their program of study and thesis project. The scope of students' projects within the program is broad, engaging a wide range of social, cultural, and artistic practices in an original and rigorously theorized manner.
