Major Qualifying Project
The Major Qualifying Project (MQP) is a high-level research project in the student's field. It involves problems typical of those found in the student's professional discipline and addresses challenging research issues.
Through the MQP, every WPI student has the chance to experience the kind of real-world problem solving that will soon characterize their professional careers. With an MQP on their resume, WPI students have a leg up on the competition when it comes to launching careers or gaining admission to the best graduate schools.
