Week 5--Recap

Hey everyone! This week's mentoring topic is to review and recap what we've gone over since the project began.  We've discussed the IDS degree, the modern job search, interviewing and networking, and interdisciplinary problem solving.

This week's assignment is in two parts.  The first part is to give three takeaways you got from this project. This can come in the form of a brief (2-3 sentence) discussion about what your favorite assignments were and what you learned from them, or any other format you'd like.

The second part is a recap--what are your three areas and how do you find interdisciplinarity in them? I remember that my mentoring group asked us this question at the end of our project and it made me really think about the overlaps in my areas--even if it wasn't something I necessarily wanted to study or work in.

I hope you guys have enjoyed the project! If you have any questions please leave them in the comments!
