Human Resource Management Capstone

The HR Capstone Project, as an alternative to field placement, is another way in which students apply newly acquired HR skills. Students must obtain prior approval to participate in the Capstone course from the Program Coordinator. It is a large-scale academic project in which students have the semester to complete their work. Working in conjunction with the college faculty advisor, students will follow a rigorous, scholarly process in the production of a paper that will reflect a synthesis of topics studied in the curriculum. The student selects a topic in his or her concentration area and, with faculty approval and guidance, conducts secondary research in preparation for a final thesis paper. The finished project demonstrates the student's ability to conduct comprehensive research and articulate original ideas and thought processes.
