Our college promotes interdisciplinary research and interdisciplinary thinking among faculty and students, fostering the pursuit of innovation-driven discoveries that make an impact on lives. And because interdisciplinary programs at Northeastern often cut across broad areas of study-the arts, humanities, engineering, social sciences, and computer science-these connections extend beyond the confines of mathematics and science. Founded in 1898, Northeastern is a comprehensive, global research university with more than 20,000 undergraduate and graduate students. It offers more than 90 undergraduate majors and more than 165 graduate programs, ranging from professional master’s degrees to interdisciplinary Ph.D. The university’s research enterprise is aligned with three national imperatives: health, security and sustainability. Northeastern students participate in co-op and other forms of experiential learning in 85 countries on all seven continents.
