Current Students

The Bridging Disciplines Programs are here to help you make the most of your undergraduate experience at UT, and we want to make sure you have the resources you need to be successful in your BDP. Here are some of the sections of the BDP web site that will help you be aware of the resources, policies, and community events available to you as a current BDP student:

Advising

Your BDP advisor expects to see you once a semester, and you can find information here about how to make an advising appointment. Remember that even if you don’t plan to take a BDP course or connecting experience in a given semester, it’s still a good idea to check in with your advisor to make sure you’re on track for completing your BDP.

Connecting Experiences

Find information here about connecting experience timelines, forms, and policies. Remember to let your BDP advisor know about any internship, research, or study abroad experiences you’re planning—often these will be able to count as connecting experiences.

Forms

Do you need to petition for a strand course to count, fill out a connecting experience contract, or apply for your BDP certificate? Find these and other important forms here.

Programs

You can find many more resources tailored to your own BDP area here, including profiles of current students, connecting experiences, and alumni. You’ll also find information about how to contact the student cabinet member for your BDP.

Calendar

Be sure to check out the calendar regularly for upcoming BDP events, workshops, and important deadlines.
