MSU Denver Individualized Degree Program

Some students fit the system. Others were born to reinvent it. Metropolitan State University of Denver’s Individualized Degree Program (IDP) is a flexible, student-designed major that empowers Roadrunners to build a custom degree rooted in their goals, passions and prior learning. Through one-on-one guidance from staff and faculty members, students can design a bachelor’s degree in individualized studies that reflects who they are and where they’re headed—whether they’ve explored five majors, changed careers or want to blend disciplines. IDP supports interdisciplinary studies by allowing students to combine different fields into a cohesive, personalized education path that connects life experience to academic and career outcomes. 💡 IDP is ideal for transfer students, working professionals and lifelong learners pursuing non-traditional undergraduate programs that align with their unique journey.
