This is the catch-all if a topic does not fit into any of the areas of concentrations or themes of a major.

Some departments study the same research area. If so, I reference the other department here and put in a
link. For example: Mechanical Engineering & Electrical Engineering both study robotics. Electrical
Engineering and Geo-Spatial Information Sciences both study GPS. This reinforces the idea that problems
are inherently inter-disciplinary.

When possible, I create a hyper-link to a site that discusses the topic to provide more background
information.
