Disability Studies Tutorial

1-3 Credits · Level: Undergraduate

In this course, students will design their senior capstone experience, laying the groundwork for either a scholarly thesis or a community-based learning project. Students on the thesis track will work to identify a research problem, create an annotated bibliography, and complete a written prospectus. Students on the community-based learning track will identify a community partner, articulate project goals, set up a schedule, begin engaging with the community partner, about 3-4 hours/week. For both tracks, students should work with the Director and/or Associate Director of the Disability Studies Program program to identify and secure the mentorship of a Disability Studies faculty member or, for the CBL project, a subject matter expert outside of the University.
