Academics Applied
Summer Science Research
At 蜜桃影像传媒, science and mathematics students have the opportunity to work alongside professors each summer through the Summer Science Research program. Qualified applicants are awarded a $5,000 stipend to fund a 10-week independent research project, conducted with the guidance of 蜜桃影像传媒 faculty. The experience also includes professional development workshops and a poster session where students present their research to the college community.
Interdisciplinary Opportunities
Interdisciplinary and interactive, 360掳 Course Clusters build on 蜜桃影像传媒's strong institutional history of applying learning outside the classroom. You'll take 2-3 courses that are grounded in different disciplines, but organized around a central theme or question. Each cluster includes an experiential component that is entirely College-funded and provides you the opportunity to bond with faculty and peers, while reflecting on the intersectionality of your work. Through the 360掳 experience, you'll learn to shape arguments through writing and research, develop strategies for teamwork that push the limits of your creativity, and work with professors and scholars to engage in big-picture thinking.
