This capstone course in the Criminal Justice degree program is designed to offer learners the opportunity to reflect upon and synthesize prior learning and to apply it at a higher level of understanding. Knowledge and skills from other courses in the program and from experience are integrated in focused individual projects. Such projects might include independent research or a work-related or other applied project. Analysis of the individual project in light of theory and research in the field is a key component of this course. Prior to capstone enrollment, students are expected to complete the majority of their required major courses. Students should consult with their advisor regarding specific major courses that may be completed with their capstone. NOTE: Students who were admitted to the college before Fall 2019 and have remained active in their original catalog year are not required to take IDIS 601.
