Overview

The Individualized Major at Indiana University Bloomington allows students with interests that cross traditional departmental and disciplinary boundaries to combine those interests in coherent and meaningful ways, building upon and using in new ways the resources available in the College of Arts and Sciences, and bringing in expertise from the professional schools as needed.

Features

Students develop IMP majors in consultation with faculty sponsors and propose them to committees of two faculty members selected from the IMP's Faculty Committee (IMPFC).

Programme Structure

Curriculum

The IMPFC is responsible for ensuring that individualized majors are distinct from fields of study available in existing degrees and majors and that they conform to College and university standards of breadth, depth, and rigor.

Approved majors normally combine courses from two or more College departments and, as needed, from the professional schools, with independent and self-directed work.

In addition to granting admission to the program, faculty committees work with sponsors to monitor students' progress, evaluate theses or projects, and administer final oral reviews.
