Description: Capstone I is the first semester of a two-term culminating experience in the Master of Interdisciplinary Studies program. It provides students with the time and structure to begin executing their approved capstone proposal under the guidance of a Capstone Advisor and Second Reader. Drawing on the foundations laid in the INDS 699 Capstone Seminar, students engage in independent work toward the development of a substantial final project that reflects the interdisciplinary nature of the MIS degree. Students who have earned credit for MSLC 700 cannot earn credit for INDS 700. Repeatable for Credit.
