The Capstone Project is the culminating effort of the student's entire learning experience. The student will complete a comprehensive exam that provides significant evidence of experience in Critical Infrastructure studies, master’s level thesis and research project (with submission of a final report, approval by a thesis committee, and an oral defense of the research work), or a comprehensive Critical Infrastructure project. Students will work with designated faculty to formulate, develop, and complete the project, thesis, or exam. The completion of the Capstone Course is designed to document significant evidence that all Program Outcomes have been met and provides the student evidence of experience to show to current and prospective employers. The Capstone Course must be taken at the end of the student's degree program. Prerequisite: All Master of Science in Critical Infrastructure degree program curriculum below the 700 level. (3)
