Many students start off by identifying a topic they might like to explore. Keep in mind that a single topic could be studied productively through many different possible disciplines!
You could of course approach this topic through disciplines like Biology, Chemistry, and Engineering. But you could also study different ways human beings have understood their relationship to the environment through the lens of Art History, English, or Comparative Literature, for example.

A faculty mentor is required if you would like to apply for funding for your independent project, or if you are working on an honors thesis. Many students mistakenly assume that they can only start looking for faculty mentors once they have a fully formed, perfect project idea. This is untrue! In fact, your project will benefit from having preliminary discussions with potential mentors from the earliest stages.
Asking for advice about how to shape your project in the early days can help you decide what discipline might provide the best lens for you to explore your project. And faculty advice can help you set feasible expectations, get you started down the right track, and potentially save you from a lot of wasted effort!
We recommend that you start out by asking for advice rather than asking someone to be your mentor right off the bat.
The most successful independent projects often have many unofficial mentors who offered great advice along the way, even if you end up with only one official faculty mentor on paper.
