PSCI 400 - Capstone Seminar

2 credits
This course integrates the political science major and provides a unified culminating experience for students. Not only will it serve as a means of pulling together the different strands of political science into a coherent whole, but it will also allow for effective evaluation of students’ ability to both think about and apply what they have learned in previous classes. It will be taught in seminar format. When there are two sections taught in the same semester, the sections will have shared speakers and faculty, and the two groups will occasionally be brought together for larger sessions, talks, and projects. Assignments for the course will consist of essays and a major paper. Students also participate in analysis of a major political event. The analysis includes oral presentation by each student in a seminar at the end of the term. CLA-Capstone
