Here’s where you turn action and energy into knowledge.
Your Capstone will draw on the skills and experiences you’ve gained during your first three years at Clark.
You will complete a Capstone in your major independently or as part of a group. This endeavor will involve advanced work that addresses a significant issue, problem, or theme in your field — or in the world.
Capstone projects encompass a spectacular range of topics and opportunities— it may take the form of an honors thesis, creative work, or project. In consultation with a faculty adviser, you will define and carry forward the project on your own initiative.
Students in STEM fields may pursue independent research or contribute to faculty-led grand-funded projects.
Students interested in conservation may choose an environmental science research project for their Capstone.
Student interested in human health may choose to pursue research or community-based internships.
Students who major in the visual and performing arts may choose to compose and perform and original piece of music, write and direct a play, create works of art, curate an exhibition, or produce a short film or documentary.
The Interactive Media curriculum is centered around a Game Studio course that provides a unique hands-on development environment. Students gain experience working as part of a game studio team with various departments, leads, development infrastructure, and real-world demands. Game Studio culminates with a formal interactive title and serves as their Capstone.
