Global Perspective Program at WPI

At WPI, the opportunity to pursue projects off campus is a signature element of an academic program that prepares students to put knowledge to work by developing solutions to meaningful technical and societal problems. Through the Global Perspective Program, over 50% of all WPI students complete at least one academic project off campus, in locations from Boston to Bangkok, London to Limerick, Worcester to Windhoek and Cape Town to Copenhagen. Working in small teams in close collaboration with faculty mentors, WPI students tackle problems of importance to communities around the globe. In doing so, they make a real difference and gain the confidence to take on the challenges of work and life.

The Global Perspective Program is administered by the Interdisciplinary & Global Studies Division (located in the Project Center 2nd Floor).
