Our degree programs
As a student in the Individualized Major Program (IMP) you’ll benefit from the experience of creating and pursuing your own undergraduate major or minor. Participating in the design of your education helps promote deep knowledge and metacognition—understanding how your own mind works.
The IMP B.A. allows you to create an interdisciplinary major in a subject of your choosing that cannot be found elsewhere on campus. These subjects may be offered as majors at other universities but not at Indiana University, or may be the distinctive creations of the students who pursue them. They often address pervasive problems and are on the cutting edge of academic inquiry. All majors created in the IMP are grounded in the liberal arts, developed in consultation with faculty sponsors selected by the students, and reviewed by committees of faculty appointed by the program.
The IMP minor offers you the option of enhancing your education through the addition of a unique minor to your current major. The range of minor subjects is similar to the major; it’s only limited by your imagination and the availability of relevant courses.
