Dean's Welcome
Welcome to the Interdisciplinary Schools at Old Dominion University.
Thank you for your interest in one of ODU's newest academic enterprises. The Interdisciplinary Schools were created with a simple belief: today's most important challenges cannot be solved by a single discipline alone. Success in the modern workforce requires collaboration, innovation, and the ability to connect knowledge across fields.
