Academic Projects at WPI
Project activity is an integral part of the educational experience for all students under the WPI Plan. The two types of qualifying projects are:
- A project in the major field of study. Called the Major Qualifying Project (MQP) this project focuses on the synthesis of all previous study to solve problems or perform tasks in the major field with confidence, and communicate the results effectively.
- A project which relates technology and science to society or human needs. This project, known as the Interactive Qualifying Project (IQP), challenges students to relate social needs or concerns to specific issues raised by technological developments.
