Innovative Course Opportunities (IPBL)

One way we provide these unique educational experiences is through the creation of IPBL courses.  These are Interdisciplinary, Project-Based Learning courses.  All IPBl courses include the following three components:

  • INTERDISCIPLINARY - teams of students from a variety of disciplines are in the same class.
  • PROJECT-BASED - students are tasked with solving real world problems.
  • COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT - each course requires students to be engaged with either local, regional, or global community members.
