This Media Studies capstone course brings together majors to synthesize their major coursework while simultaneously pursuing an applied project, typically either: (1) a critical research project; (2) a creative project (such as launching a podcast or directing a documentary); or (3) an internship or placement in a local community organization. The mix of critical, creative, and applied projects will allow the expertise and interests of students to influence one another.
