This week on campus is one of four Capstone Seminars that are offered every year. Over 50 PIM students from all the different degree areas—spanning the classes from the last several years—return to campus for the one week seminar to present their final research and complete their SIT degree.
Capstone week is an exciting time on campus. Old friends are reunited, PIM students from different years meet and make new connections, current students have the chance to see the results of the Reflective Practice Phase that previous students have completed, and most importantly…people graduate!
Below is a list of some of the Practicum positions the returning Capstoners held in the Master in Social Justice in Intercultural Relations degree area, and the titles of the Capstone Papers they are presenting this week. As you can see, it spans the world and many different interests within each degree area…
Every day this week we will feature another Capstone presentations from a different degree area. Come back every day to see them all!
