LBST 698 - Capstone Project or Thesis II

Credits: 3

Second of two required courses that will result in a substantial independent project or an original master’s research thesis on a defined topic. Using the formal proposal developed and approved by a faculty committee in LBST 697, students will carry the project or thesis to completion. A capstone project must contain a tangible final project (summary report, recording, museum installation, script, computer program, etc.). A capstone thesis must meet standards of scholarship commensurate with a sustained, original investigation at the graduate level. Final project/thesis will be reviewed by a committee of faculty experts chosen by the student and faculty advisor with the approval of the program director. Final grade recorded as satisfactory or unsatisfactory only.
