MAIS 626 - MAIS Capstone Course

Unit(s): 4

This final capstone class provides a space for students to receive vital information regarding the elements of the capstone project, from introductions and abstracts, to the front and back matter of the final submission. Students also hold individual meetings with advisors, as well as peer reviews of elements of the final capstone project. This course also includes professional development workshops, helping students to improve how they present the skills they have learned to a broader audience. The course is a supplement to work students do independently and in direct consultation with their primary advisors. The course aims to help students achieve a successful final thesis/applied project and understand how to position their project within the broader field and in the working world. Students are expected to put in 180 hours of work over the course of the thesis/applied project writing process, which extends over more than one semester.
