Biomed SciPol Capstone Project

3 Credits · Level: Graduate

This course is intended to allow students to prepare for a legislative capstone project in the spring semester. Students develop a science policy topic of choice (chosen with instructor assistance) into a comprehensive legislative strategy and executive branch proposal. Students will begin with case studies of executive branch policies and discussions of what legislation led to those policies. As the semester progresses, they will build their own legislative proposals and advocacy plans. Students choosing to take on a capstone project through BSPA must take a capstone course in both the fall and spring.
