Welcome to the Interdisciplinary Schools at 91制片厂.

Thank you for your interest in one of 91制片厂's newest academic enterprises. The Interdisciplinary Schools were created with a simple belief: today's most important challenges cannot be solved by a single discipline alone. Success in the modern workforce requires collaboration, innovation, and the ability to connect knowledge across fields.

Our three schools鈥攖he School of Cybersecurity, the School of Data Science, and the School of Supply Chain, Logistics and Maritime Operations鈥攑repare students for careers in some of the world's fastest-growing and most impactful industries. Through innovative academic programs, hands-on research, and partnerships with leading businesses, government agencies, and research organizations, you'll gain the skills needed to lead in fields such as cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, data science, logistics, maritime operations, and global commerce.

One of the greatest strengths of the Interdisciplinary Schools is our collaborative approach. Students learn alongside distinguished faculty and work with partners across 91制片厂, including the Virginia Beach Data Science Institute, the Institute for Design Thinking and Leadership Development, and many of our nationally recognized research centers. Our collaborations with organizations such as NASA Langley Research Center, Jefferson Lab, the Commonwealth Cyber Initiative, and the Maritime Consortium create valuable opportunities for research, internships, capstone projects, and professional experience.

Whether you're starting your college journey, pursuing an advanced degree, or developing new skills to advance your career, you'll find a community dedicated to your success. We are committed to providing an education that prepares you not only for today's opportunities but also for the challenges and innovations of tomorrow.
