TOPICS: SENIOR APPLIED PROJECT SEMINAR in Spring 2026 (CM4910A)

The Senior Applied Project is one of the capstone options available to students in the Global Communications, Fashion Studies, Journalism, and Communications & Civil Society majors. This hands-on seminar builds a capstone learning pathway that calls upon students’ previous work in their major, yet via a general theme or issue that the class will explore throughout the semester. Applying learning and course material from the major to a contemporary ‘problem’ or issue, students will complete a final collaborative media project which reflects different angles on this issue. The final project also includes a written component in which students will reflect critically upon their process. This capstone seminar aims to build a bridge between the academic components of the majors and how that knowledge can be applied in a real-world setting and communicated to a professional audience.
