What type of “culminating experiences” are undergraduate students required to complete before they graduate? When will that requirement be in place?
A cornerstone of the i2a project is students’ engagement in what we call a “culminating undergraduate experience.” Before he or she graduates, every student will be asked to apply his or her new knowledge and critical thinking skills in a project or research endeavor that has practical application. The style and scope of the culminating undergraduate experience will vary by school, department or academic program. The University has chosen to take an expansive approach to culminating undergraduate experiences and expects participating units to develop a mix of approaches, which could include: • Capstone Courses/Projects • Internships • Senior Theses • Research Projects • Service Learning Projects As more details and shared learning outcomes for the i2a culminating undergraduate experiences emerge in 2008 and 2009, additional information will be shared in the Culminating Undergraduate Experiences section of this website.
