Capstone I

1 unit

The purpose of Capstone I is to prepare students for their independent integrated learning experience or capstone project. The capstone project is a student-initiated project that integrates and synthesizes selected MPH foundational and specialization competencies in a high-quality written product that demonstrates student mastery of such competencies. Capstone I aims to prepare students for the development of their capstone project by providing capstone guidelines, direction in competency selection, workshops and practice in scientific writing, proposal/outline development, and small group presentations and feedback on project ideas. This one-credit course is required of all MPH students before completion of their capstone project.
