Bachelor of Multidisciplinary Studies

University of Nebraska at Omaha

The Bachelor of Multidisciplinary Studies (BMS) degree offers a distinct multidisciplinary learning opportunity that allows students to pursue areas of study that may be unrelated, cultivates an approach to problem-solving that appreciates and utilizes diverse perspectives and knowledge, and fosters an appreciation and thirst for lifelong learning. Recognizing the diverse needs, interests and experiences of our multigenerational learners, the BMS program allows for flexibility in acceptance of transfer credit and other college-level learning outside the traditional classroom. The curriculum complements and connects prior learning and the discipline-specific learning students select as part of their degree program.Student Learning OutcomesThe BMS curriculum is intentionally designed to observe, develop, and enrich program outcomes in our students. Throughout the program, students shape, articulate, and document their progress towards achievement of each Goal and Learning Outcome, independent of where, when, or how the learning was acquired.
