Integrative Learning Opportunities

Ambassadorship Program

Geneseo Student Ambassador Awards provide up to $5,000 to support change-making, student-designed projects combining independent learning, innovative approaches to problem solving and community-based action. Projects can take place on campus, in the region, or even internationally: wherever you want to make an impact that matters to others. We welcome individual applications and applications from teams of students; students from all majors are encouraged to apply.

Engage Geneseo

Engage Geneseo is a service that helps the local community connect with the College and allows us to match students, staff and faculty with businesses and organizations seeking volunteers, interns, employees, and experts. Let us know what you're looking for and we will help get you connected to the right individual, department, or office to meet your needs. 

Individualized Studies Major

An Individualized Studies Major (ISM), either as a B.A. or B.S., allows students to design a sequence of courses that achieve an interdisciplinary project and to reflect on and articulate their goals in pursuing this undergraduate major with an eye to research opportunities, career development, and community engagement. 

Innovative Interdisciplinary Courses
