Students will focus on a subject, topic, or theme that is not covered in existing majors or combinations of academic programs. This gives students the unique opportunity to design a liberal arts and sciences study program that fits their interests and needs and is directed by their personal passions. Students are supported by faculty advisors and the director of the Center for Integrative Learning to ensure the major is both exciting and feasible.</p> <div class="row"> <div class="col-12 col-md-4"> <p><a class="btn btn-geneseo btn-geneseo-blue w-100" href="https://connect.geneseo.edu/register/?id=7cdfeef0-d3d0-4b2d-b5dd-5a1154ea2b4e&amp;sys:field:expected_interest=1676b82d-1ce8-4b3f-94b1-2b4ad1ba90a8"><span class="text">Request Info</span></a></p> </div> <div class="col-12 col-md-4"> <p><a class="btn btn-geneseo btn-geneseo-blue" href="/admissions/campus-tours"><span class="text">Visit Âé¶¹´«Ã½ÍŶÓ</span></a></p> </div> <div class="col-12 col-md-4"> <p><a class="btn btn-geneseo btn-info" href="/admissions/apply"><span class="text">Apply</span></a></p> </div> </div> <figure class="figure-img img-fluid rounded"> <div class="align-center media media--type-image media--view-mode-default"> <div class="field field--name-field-media-image field--type-image field--label-visually_hidden"> <div class="field__label visually-hidden">Image</div> <div class="field__item"> <a href="/sites/default/files/images/StudentsonCampus_MB8_05162023-Edit.jpg"> <picture> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/bootstrap_2500_px_width/public/images/StudentsonCampus_MB8_05162023-Edit.jpg?itok=frCL47QG 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/bootstrap_2500_px_width/public/images/StudentsonCampus_MB8_05162023-Edit.jpg?itok=frCL47QG 2x" media="(min-width: 1400px)" type="image/jpeg" width="2500" height="1668"> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/bootstrap_xl_1x/public/images/StudentsonCampus_MB8_05162023-Edit.jpg?itok=IUYgBWy1 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/bootstrap_2500_px_width/public/images/StudentsonCampus_MB8_05162023-Edit.jpg?itok=frCL47QG 2x" media="(max-width: 1399.98px)" type="image/jpeg" width="1399" height="933"> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/bootstrap_l_1x/public/images/StudentsonCampus_MB8_05162023-Edit.jpg?itok=2y0qyfT1 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/bootstrap_l_2x/public/images/StudentsonCampus_MB8_05162023-Edit.jpg?itok=q01UKDyp 2x" media="(max-width: 1199.98px)" type="image/jpeg" width="1199" height="800"> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/bootstrap_m_1x/public/images/StudentsonCampus_MB8_05162023-Edit.jpg?itok=ghfczTng 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/bootstrap_m_2x/public/images/StudentsonCampus_MB8_05162023-Edit.jpg?itok=iMwsZsIW 2x" media="(max-width: 991.98px)" type="image/jpeg" width="991" height="661"> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/bootstrap_s_1x/public/images/StudentsonCampus_MB8_05162023-Edit.jpg?itok=hnVI6muY 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/bootstrap_s_2x/public/images/StudentsonCampus_MB8_05162023-Edit.jpg?itok=IIlkORfW 2x" media="(max-width: 767.98px)" type="image/jpeg" width="767" height="512"> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/bootstrap_xs/public/images/StudentsonCampus_MB8_05162023-Edit.jpg?itok=Z1un8kYR 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/bootstrap_xs_2x/public/images/StudentsonCampus_MB8_05162023-Edit.jpg?itok=wsIE6ttg 2x" media="(max-width: 575.98px)" type="image/jpeg" width="575" height="384"> <img loading="eager" width="991" height="661" src="/sites/default/files/styles/bootstrap_m_1x/public/images/StudentsonCampus_MB8_05162023-Edit.jpg?itok=ghfczTng" alt="Student studying outside" class="img-fluid"> </picture> </a> </div> </div> </div> </figure> <h2 id="e6e14d5ea074e0ca0f4b3a8b020ddc780">Program Options</h2> <ul> <li><a href="https://bulletin.geneseo.edu/preview_program.php?catoid=22&amp;poid=2282&amp;returnto=948">BA in Individualized Studies</a></li> <li><a href="https://bulletin.geneseo.edu/preview_program.php?catoid=22&amp;poid=2283&amp;returnto=948">BS in Individualized Studies</a></li> </ul> <h2 id="e96d09407e6a5ecfeeea3580e5995605c">Program Highlights</h2> <ul> <li style="list-style-type:disc;">Students complete a major capstone experience that encourages them to integrate and apply what they’ve learned in their major to real-world situations and reflect on their future goals and aspirations.</li> <li style="list-style-type:disc;">Faculty advisors guide coursework in primary and secondary disciplines, with ample room for exploration through electives.</li> </ul> </div> <div class="col-12 col-md-6 col-lg-3 col-sm-12" style="padding-top:15px;"> <h2 id="ef0cd9f764c53406fba01a6c4be70c4f4">Sample Required Course</h2> <ul> <li>Individualized Studies Capstone Seminar</li> </ul> <h2 id="e341b9f7526e10965dc11b7fe504fab33">Sample Popular Electives</h2> <ul> <li>Electives differ with each student-designed program.</li> </ul> <div class="geneseo-lt-blue-box"> <h2 id="e77bc975364932af1581b10d767b5e695">Contact Info</h2> <p><strong>Melanie Medeiros, Individualized Studies Program Coordinator;

Pecora also cohosted a&nbsp;public open mic&nbsp;where anyone could share up to 5 minutes of writing.&nbsp;The two events were part of the&nbsp;2023 Tri-Lakes Pride Festival&nbsp;hosted by the Adirondack North Country Gender Alliance. Pecora's workshop and related events were supported by the Keith ‘11 and Joanna ‘13 Walters Artist-in-Residence Ambassadorship.</p> <p>Pecora's ambassador project "Rural Transgender Poetics" asks "How might we use in-person and online poetry workshops alongside an online collection of written works to grow both community and self-expression for transgender people living in rural areas?" In addition to this summer's workshop at the ACW, Pecora also hosted a similar workshop for Âé¶¹´«Ã½ÍÅ¶Ó students in the spring through the GOLD program and they will be offering at least one more workshop through the GOLD program in the fall.</p> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-image-media field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__item"><div class="media media--type-image media--view-mode-news-article"> <div class="field field--name-field-media-image field--type-image field--label-hidden field__item"> <img loading="lazy" src="/sites/default/files/styles/news_article/public/images/IMG_5492_0.jpg?itok=TGkqtme-" width="500" height="333" alt class="img-fluid image-style-news-article"> </div> </div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-image-description field--type-string-long field--label-hidden field__item">Âé¶¹´«Ã½ÍÅ¶Ó Student Ambassador Elliot Pecora '24, the Keith ‘11 and Joanna ‘13 Walters Artist-in-Residence Ambassador</div> Wed, 05 Jul 2023 19:56:23 +0000 medeiros 149961 at Michael Mills /cil/michael-mills <span class="field field--name-title field--type-string field--label-hidden">Michael Mills</span> <span class="field field--name-uid field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden"><span>mer29</span></span> <span class="field field--name-created field--type-created field--label-hidden"><time datetime="2022-04-01T14:48:30-04:00" title="Friday, April 1, 2022 - 14:48" class="datetime">Fri, 04/01/2022 - 14:48</time> </span> <div class="field field--name-field-email field--type-email field--label-hidden field__item">millsm@geneseo.edu</div> <div class="field field--name-field-image-media field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__item"><div class="media media--type-image media--view-mode-employee-photo"> <div class="field field--name-field-media-image field--type-image field--label-visually_hidden"> <div class="field__label visually-hidden">Image</div> <div class="field__item"> <img loading="lazy" src="/sites/default/files/styles/employee_photo/public/sites/shrm/geneseo-shield_0.jpg?itok=fKzhIMEm" width="400" height="500" alt="Advisor" class="img-fluid image-style-employee-photo"> </div> </div> </div> </div> Fri, 01 Apr 2022 18:48:30 +0000 mer29 148949 at
