Capstone Seminar
The purpose of the Capstone Seminar is to develop and apply transferable professional skills to persuade decision-makers. The course requires students to identify a question, problem, or issue in their field of study or profession to research in order to create a report that argues for an applied solution. Over the duration of the quarter, students will focus on the following: developing an argument in both written and oral format to support their solution through consideration of purpose, audience, and evidence; gathering and evaluating sources in their field or industry; the connection between discipline, style, and format; and their individual writing process.
