Immersive experiences extend learning beyond the classroom. They allow students to collaborate on projects with faculty members and communities throughout Indiana – or around the world – in ways our students call "life changing."

These seminars and projects usually involve groups of students of different majors working together – just as in the workplace – and result in a product, such as a film, business plan, product design, or exhibit. Through this collaborative process, our students sharpen their teamwork and communications skills, make contacts with businesses and industry professionals, and create a portfolio of work that will help them move ahead in the job market after graduation.

All students, including freshmen and graduate students, can take part in these experiential courses. And in many majors, an internship or other immersive learning experience is a graduation requirement.
