The projects are known as the Interactive Qualifying Project (IQP) and the Major Qualifying Project (MQP). These projects not only allow students to learn about the applicability of what they learn in class, but at the same time they are able to see the impact of their work on society. Each year WPI has teams made up of three students each assigned to a specific project. The faculty advisor meets with the companies and determines what it is that they should target in order to set-up a plan of action.
