Water Quality Indiana (WQI) blends science with journalism and provides impactful recruitment into STEM and media fields through experiential learning. Students collect a range of water-quality data from local waterways and conduct interviews with stakeholders. They then transform knowledge to judgment by producing defendable scientific results and generating multimedia products. Students transform judgment to action by disseminating their deliverables to a public audience of consultants, regulators, and landowners to help create a sustainable future.

Everybody lives downstream of somebody else. "Downstream: Connecting Indiana to the Gulf of Mexico" emphasizes how we are all connected — through our decisions, attitudes & actions. This documentary examines potential impact(s) of nitrogen, a fertilizer commonly used in the production of corn. Students enrolled in Water Quality Indiana at Ball State University began this production in September 2016, traveling to Louisiana with the intent to learn more about hypoxia, or the dead zone, in the Gulf of Mexico.
