CSC 8101 CSC Capstone Project

The purpose of the computer science master's degree CSC Capstone Project is to allow the students to reflect on their graduate experience, create and incorporate the various aspects of their learning experiences while considering and planning for their continuing professional development after they leave the computer science master's program.  The portfolio project is intended to be reflective and comprehensive, as well as personal, action- and practice-oriented, and developmental, rather than a theoretical exercise.  The portfolio project is to be reflected upon throughout their entire graduate experience, compiled, and presented at their last semester in the program.
