Welcome everyone to our blog forum! As mentors, we hope to provide each of you with a fun learning experience that will help guide you through this degree program and life. First, lets get to know each other a little better. We will be working together for the next 8 weeks sharing our knowledge and common interest in Interdisciplinary Studies. In your reply to this post you should give a brief introduction of yourself. We want to know who you are? What are you areas/minor? What year are you in?
After you have given an introduction go to
http://www.sixwise.com/Survey/FreeCareerTestWhatsYourCareerPersonality/FreeCareerTestWhatsYourCareerPersonality.aspx
and take a short career test. Keep in mind this is just to give you an idea of how your personality may relate to different careers. Give a brief description of the results and how they do or do not relate to you.
Interdisciplinary Studies offers a unique degree. This degree program allows us to take our diversified interests and find a common ground. How do you explain Interdisciplinary Studies to others? Explain at least two advantages and two disadvantages of an interdisciplinary education.
Please be sure to keep up with the blogs. As the next conversation comes out we will be moving on to new subjects. Keeping up will also allow mentors to efficiently respond to your posts. Remember at the end of each blog to sign your name to ensure you recieve credit. We appreciate your co-operation and look forward to the next couple of weeks.
