☀️Did you know that you can design your own course of study at Brandeis? You can, by developing an Independent Interdisciplinary Major (IIM)!

Whether you want to find out more about the IIM or are already planning to propose, come learn what it’s like to create an independent major. Current majors and IIM advisors will share their experiences and insights in the Intercultural Center’s Swig Lounge over boba tea 🧋🙏

If you’re already a declared IIM, come spend time with other majors and help guide interested students by sharing more about your experience

If you have any questions, seek out the IIM UDRs, Kate, and Kiernan for answers! We look forward to seeing you there :)
