Interdepartmental Courses
The INTD designation refers to courses that are “Interdepartmental.” Interdepartmental (INTD) undergraduate courses are multidisciplinary or interdisciplinary courses that supplement the courses offered by academic departments based in the university’s schools or colleges.
University Courses
The UNIV designation refers to courses that are general “University” courses. Unlike INTD courses, which are proposed by faculty in academic departments, UNIV courses are proposed and implemented by staff from other university units.

Undergraduate Interdisciplinary Studies at UConn
Many existing UConn major and minor plans of study are interdisciplinary in nature, but more are possible. For information on how to create your own major that is both interdisciplinary and interdepartmental, see information on the Individualized Major Program.
Interdisciplinary Experiential Global Learning
The courses students take when studying abroad may not fit under one single department at UConn. In these cases, it can be difficult for some students to get their experiential global learning courses aligned through a single school or department. Students may request course alignment through the UICC only after being denied by two other departments at UConn. Please speak with a representative in Experiential Global Learning for guidance.
