=== Priority 1: Increasing Interdisciplinary Space ===
<span style="font-size:larger;">'''Interdisciplinary Offices'''</span>
'''Project Description:'''
Every school and building on our campus would have some sort of space dedicated to a different discipline, industry, or focus. For example, putting a STEM innovation space in the College of Fine Arts, or a Humanities Innovation space in the Business Building. This would provide students with opportunities to engage with ideas that are generally different from what they normally learn, and would teach these students how to be innovative in applying interdisciplinary ideas into their learning outcomes.
'''Key Tactics:'''
*Regularly analyze the effectiveness of the space and the amount of student interaction that takes place.
=== Priority 2: Increasing Interdisciplinary Empathy===
<span style="font-size:larger;">'''The BYU VR Experience'''</span>
Project Lead: Ashley Paget
BYU Potential Project Supporters:
Mat Duerden
Project Description:
Creating a space for a Virtual Reality Experience for student development. Content would be developed to provide students with different experiences in classes, labs, and other hands on expereinces to help students learn more about different classes and majors. Other simulations would have job shadowing possibilities for students to experience the day to day of different careers. For example, students could be exposed to a 360 degree view of a physicians work day. This would allow students to explore different options and find what fits them best.

*Partner with the Ballard Center to utilize their public leverage in advertising this event.

This app would have students take an initial survey of background, interests, and goals and dreams. With these results users would be matched with certain GEs that fit them best. It would also have a feature that showed what students with similar results have taken. Users could then see the overall GE course list, favorite certain choices and register for others, and see professor reviews. There would also be a platform to buy and sell textbooks from GE courses. padding Key Tactics: 0 1em 0 1em *Receive approval margin: 1em*Connect with IS dpartment for app development*Design screens and graphics*Test basic functions in the library with students*Work out bugs background-color: #fdd; color: black">=== <br/> ===*Link app to current BYU app
