“I completed the UX certificate and took it and the skills that I gained to start a career in UX immediately before I’ve graduated. After I graduate, I’ll build on that career. But it’s given me the ability to start right away.” -Jessi Boyer, Interdisciplinary Professional Studies student

Photo of my 3 year old for attention. I'm in dire need of help. Trying to plan out my courses. I am a transfer student and most of my courses are in Psychology as that was my major at my previous school. Has anyone else had a minor in Psychology while majoring in Multidisciplinary Studies? I have a career goal of Child Life Specialist and Psychology will help with that. TIA
"I am so excited to be graduating this Saturday!
This semester has been demanding but amazing at the same time. I have experienced so many wonderful things while I've been a student at Boise State for the past year and a half. As an MDS degree-seeking student, I have taken all my classes online, so things didn't change much for me in that respect. However, having children home doing their schoolwork while I was keeping up on mine was a bit of a challenge. I will be forever grateful for the experiences I've had while attending Boise State. Thank you to the wonderful instructors and staff. I couldn't have done it without them."

Congratulations Tracy! We’re so proud of your achievements!

Tracy Meunier takes things bite-by-bite.

She crosses the finish line tomorrow with a degree in interdisciplinary professional studies and certifications in conflict management, applied leadership and ASL.

The department's staff was Tracy's favorite part of her time at Boise State. “I adore the IPS program. I consider IPS instructors and staff family since we always get along,” she said.

Naturally, family and friends made it possible for her to work, care for her family and achieve a degree. “My children and their companions aided me with homework and encouraged me. Beth, my sister, read my writing and assisted with assignments. My best friend, Karen, wouldn't miss my graduation for the world.”

In the future, Tracy hopes to find herself back on The Blue. “When I started, I felt supported. I want to work at Boise State to champion incoming nontraditional students. Knowing I can reach difficult goals has changed my life. I'm wearing an elephant necklace to represent taking it bite-by-bite.”

Congratulations, Tracy!
