Senior Capstone I

Catalog description

The Senior Capstone Project I is a course designed to help the music major transition to professional life. The student designs a yearlong project in conjunction with the instructor (and other members of the music department if applicable) that will help students support their careers in music. The projects will be approved by the instructor and may include a Senior Lecture Recital, a substantial Recording Project, a Portfolio of Original Compositions, a Portfolio of Creative Projects that involve Music Technology or a Career Path Project designed to adapt to the specific needs and interests of the students. The course ends with a public performance or presentation of the project, with at least half of the proposed project completed during the Fall semester, when the student is enrolled in Senior Capstone Project I, and a presentation of the completed project during the Spring semester, when the student is enrolled in Senior Capstone Project II.
