🕵 What is an ISP?

• Within your INSEAD studies there is the option to conduct an independent study project, or ISP, on a topic of your choice
• Completed ISPs are valued at one full credit within your programme

🤔 Why take an ISP?

• Within the Environment and Business club we see this as one of the best opportunities to get deeper into sustainability topics during your studies
• An ISP is also a great way to build capacity and demonstrate commitment to the sphere in preparation for internship or full-time recruiting within the sustainability space

🛑 What are the requirements

• On the topic of the ISP
  • (1) You need to find a faculty member to supervise and sponsor your project
  • (2) There needs to be an academic learning goal for the project that is relevant to the MBA curriculum
• An ISP should entail the equivalent amount of hours as an elective, so approx. 50 hours
• A maximum of two ISPs are possible to complete during the programme, and there’s a maximum of one per period
