What about interdisciplinarity? (Score 1)

I'm still an undergraduate student, but the main reason I want to attend graduate school in a few years is because of the interdisciplinary focus of some grad schools. I am currently studying international development and applied mathematics, but rarely get to see how you can combine the two. When I look at the graduate students I work with during summer internships, I see them taking courses on things like:

• Social Networks
• Biostatistics
• Behavioural Economics
• etc...

Yes, you can get courses that touch on these topics in your undergrad, but I have yet to see such courses explore these topics in-depth. I can't wait until I can dedicate my time to such weird but interesting subjects, and that's why I can't wait until grad school.

I'd be interested to hear what others have to say about this -- for those of you who have a wide range of interests, did grad school do the job?
