The undergraduate programs, first offered in Griffin in 2005, are degree-completion programs for transfer students or those seeking a second bachelor’s degree.

The UGA Griffin Campus’ new Bachelor of Arts (AB) Interdisciplinary Studies (IDS) degree in the Social Sciences will allow students to pursue a Psychology Concentration or a Sociology Concentration. This degree program, offered by UGA’s Franklin College of Arts & Sciences, prepares students for a wide range of career opportunities in a variety of settings, including government, health services, law enforcement, human resources, community service, advertising/public relations, and data analysis. It also provides a solid foundation for students who plan to go on to law school or to graduate programs in counseling, psychology, public administration, criminal justice, and advertising/marketing.
Students who enroll in our new AB/IDS degree program will enjoy the benefits of small class sizes and individual mentoring from faculty while earning a degree from one of the top 25 public research universities in the nation, the University of Georgia.
