Global Capstone Action Learning Leadership

Catalog description

This is a career-oriented capstone course that provides students in the latter part of the program synthesizing, practical, in-depth field experience to work with any business organizations on a real-life data analytics project based upon a learning contract approved by both the program director and the mentor in the hosting or sponsor firm either in the United States or abroad. The student must secure a faculty member who is available and agrees to supervise his or her internship. Internship placement will give priority to locations outside the United States for domestic students. Each internship requires at least one month or 100 hours under supervision of a data analytics practitioner on site. At the end of the internship students will prepare a substantial Master's Capstone Project Report concerning their experience, and give presentation to the faculty of College of Management and invited executives and program sponsors. Students should have completed all required core courses and most electives before enrolling in the course. Pre requisites: DA 530, 610, and 620 Co requisites: DA 710, 720 and 730
