Concentrations: Commerce, education
Minors: Marketing, history
This is my fourth year at UCF!
I explain IDS as Miley Cyrus would Hannah Montana, being the best of both worlds. As a multifaceted person, I do not want to limit myself with one concentration. Instead, I can focus on the different paths I’d like to take in life and weave the ideas from each together.
The advantages are blatantly obvious in our recession right now. When I graduate in December, I will be prepared to do many jobs because of my major. I would be very limited if I had a major that only centered around one concentration. IDS encourages thinking outside of the box and the major itself teaches you valuable life lessons. Unfortunately, the major is afflicted with many misconceptions. These misconceptions are among students, faculty and potential employers. IDS is not well known and therefore, doesn’t always get the respect it deserves!

I agree with the Miley Cyrus reference...it is the best of both worlds. I like having the flexibilty of my major, but I also like not having to double major and be here past my time.
