1. The interdisciplinary concentration option is made available to students based on their individual needs and goals for specific vocational preparation. The interdisciplinary concentration will include 12 credits at the F200 level or above from the disciplines of social work, psychology, sociology, justice or human services. Three credits from these disciplines can be at the F100 level.
2. The interdisciplinary concentration will be reviewed and approved by the human services program coordinator, another human services faculty member and a faculty member representing at least one other discipline. Criteria for the approval of the interdisciplinary concentration are based on the candidate’s identified vocational and curricular needs.

Examples:

• HUMS or other acceptable courses that meet a student’s specific need: Workforce Specialty, Family Specialty, Restorative Justice, etc.
• Courses or a certificate from within the UA system (UAA, RHS, PWSCC, etc.) that are aligned with the human services degree program.
