For those interested in pursuing other degrees, especially in the fine arts, this distinction can be extremely important. On Campus Online   The Individualized Master of Arts (IMA) program offers qualified students the opportunity to self-design their graduate education to pursue existing or emerging subject areas.  Our program combines short-term residencies in Ohio, on-line study, and allows students to integrate a host of external educational providers into their personalized curriculum. Students may do independent study with approved instructors, take advantage of local university resources or integrate unique professional or experiential learning (e.g. internships, past experience) into their approved curriculum. Antioch is able to support degrees in the following broad subject areas:   Business Administration*  Community Development  Conflict Analysis and Engagement*  Creative Writing  Health and Wellness  Human Development  Humanities / Liberal Studies  Organization and Leadership  International and Global Studies Visual  Performing Art (Acting/Performance, Visual Arts, Mult-Media)  Interdisciplinary *Students may utilize the course work or short-terms certificates from our other graduate programs in these areas to customize a degree. For instance, Health Care Management. Within each of the above area students design a concentration, which may closely mirror an existing discipline, such as History, Sociology, or Acting. They may also pursue emerging disciplines such as Yoga Studies, Holistic Health or Media Studies. We cannot support students interested in the hard sciences, mathematics, or music.     Accreditation Information: Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools 30 North LaSalle Street Suite 2400 Chicago, IL 60602-2504 (800) 621-7440 (312) 263-0456 Fax: (312) 263-7462 www.ncahigherlearningcommission.org  # Of Credits Required: 45  Time To Degree: 18-36 months (varies by student)    Previous Degrees Applicants should have completed a four-year undergraduate degree from a regionally accredited institution.
