Interdisciplinary Studies major

<p>I'm really interested in this, but also confused by it. I really want to go to a college that allows me to go into a major that combines biology and math, such as biometry, biostatistics, or bioinformatics. Emory doesn't have this specifically, but they do have IDS. I was wondering how stringent the requirements are when doing this, and if I would be able to kind of create my own major which would be a mix of those. On the website it ways you are required to do a concentration in one of the following:
1. IDS: Interdisciplinary Humanities
2. IDS: Interdisciplinary Critical Studies
3. IDS: Science and Society
4. IDS: Intercultural Studies
5. IDS: Visual Studies and Contemporary Culture
6. IDS: Race and Difference Studies
7. IDS: Culture, Society, and Public Scholarship</p>

<p>And while I would rather not have to do this, I would be fine with taking a 2 or 3 random classes if it would allow me to create my own major in something else. If I chose the IDS program, what would I have to do?</p>

<p>Have you looked at the five-year BA/MSPH program in biostatistics? (<a href=“http://www.sph.emory.edu/cms/departments_centers/bios/degree_programs/ba-msph.html[/url]”>http://www.sph.emory.edu/cms/departments_centers/bios/degree_programs/ba-msph.html&lt;/a&gt;)</p>

<p>Why don’t you ask Admissions directly? There’s nothing like demonstrating interest …</p>
