More About the Great Problems Seminar
The Great Problems Seminar (GPS) immerses first-year students into university-level research and introduces them to the project-based curriculum at WPI. As part of The Global School at WPI, the course gives students and faculty the opportunity to step outside their disciplines to solve problems focused on themes of global importance. This culminates in annual Poster Presentation Days that celebrate students’ innovative research on a wide range of solutions to some of the world’s most critical challenges. Alumni report significant gains from their GPS experience, citing the strong preparation for all stages of WPI's project- and team-based curriculum, as well as positive impacts on their job readiness.
