HUMN 7311 - Capstone: Liberal Studies

Credits: 3

The capstone course is required of all M.L.S. students not undertaking a thesis. Conducted as an independent directed study, it is the last course of a student’s program for the M.L.S. degree. Students earning a concentration must pursue a capstone project related to the curricular field area of their concentration. One month in advance of their last term, students must choose a faculty member with whom to work and - in consultation with that faculty member - propose to the M.L.S. director and Simmons School dean their topic and/or project. Students have a choice among the following capstone options to satisfactorily complete their degree program and to prepare for further graduate work: the portfolio project, the graduate project, an internship and/or service experience, or a creative project.
