MA/MST Capstone Project

Catalog description

The MA/MST capstone is intended to gather and focus skills acquired throughout the program toward an exploratory project aimed at bridging between the student's residency and whatever will follow beyond the MA. Mentorship can include your advisor augmented, should you chose, by any other faculty member from CCRMA or in other programs. The project can be in applied research areas such as design projects and/or mentored internships. Also, the capstone can be considered as a more flexible form of a master's thesis, aiming to produce research and publication(s). Students can also pursue the artistic projects to enhance the creative portfolio.
