IMP majors must complete an integrative project during their last semester of study. The integrative project is so named because it draws on all the disciplines studied as part of the IMP major. Students propose their integrative project to the committee in their second-to-last semester. The project proposal includes a four- to five-page prospectus, a bibliography, and a letter of support from the faculty sponsor. In the past, students have planned and carried out community-outreach programs, produced stage plays and films, conducted statistics-gathering research, and written interdisciplinary theses. The integrative project must count for four credits worth of independent study; depending on how many more hours of instruction are involved, it may account for the total limit of 8 credits of independent study allowable in the individualized major.
