Welcome to the student handbook for Interdisciplinary Studies (IST) programs at NKU. Here you will find descriptions of the degree programs, policies and procedures, and resources for students. 

Students should consult the university catalog for official NKU policies and procedures. The university catalog is the document of authority and will indicate the official requirements and policies. Your catalog of record is the catalog for the year you first enter NKU as a degree-seeking student. This handbook reflects the content of the 2023-2024 university catalogs.

This handbook is a work in progress. Please bear with us as we continue to revise and update its contents.
