Interdisciplinary and General Studies Online Degree Programs
Choosing the right degree path when you have multiple passions is a tough decision. At Liberty, we make it easy!
A general studies program, or what we call interdisciplinary studies, is an excellent choice if you have previous life experience in multiple fields and are seeking to boost your resume while developing in-demand skills in writing, critical thinking, and communication.
You’ve worked hard to get where you are today, and we can help you go even further. We want to help you make the most of that hard work by ensuring that you won’t have to repeat a course you’ve already taken through a regionally accredited college or university. When you take your next step with Liberty, you can be confident that you are on the path to success!
With an interdisciplinary studies degree, you can begin or further your knowledge in a variety of disciplines that most interest you! Our flexible and affordable interdisciplinary studies degree programs are a great option both academically and spiritually. Each course is taught by Christian leaders who are excited to educate and encourage you in your academic career and your walk with Christ.

While many schools offer online degrees, we believe Liberty stands out.
