-dip up to 8-credits in their major with what Innovation Studies requires. They do this so that the program is super diverse, with students from many majors offering their disciplinary perspectives. The Innovation Studies program gives you a chance to study business, history, computer science, economics, communications, art, and philosophy, to name just a few disciplines. One of the courses that I took is called Hist 346: History of Innovation and Technology, which traces the process of innovation
