MPS Capstone Project GPPS 5397 (6 credits) Towards the end of the MPS program, students will select, with faculty approval, a topic for a major project that demonstrates the student’s ability to define, analyze, evaluate, and identify strategic solutions to deal with a major issue, problem, or opportunity within the field of study.
Beginning fall 2008, newly-matriculated students are required to attend a 2-day residency in Storrs, CT to meet their peers, instructors, and to learn about program particulars. Students matriculated for fall 2009 will attend on Thursday 9/17 and Friday 9/18. The MPS program also requires students to complete a professional residency. Consistent with the criteria for the MPS Capstone Project, each residency will be subject to the approval of the student’s advisory committee. Appropriate residencies are those designed to: (a) provide students with an opportunity to develop a sense of affiliation and identification with the program and the university; (b) provide students with an opportunity for scholarly dialogue related to their capstone project; or (c) provide students with an opportunity for professional socialization by developing relationships with peers, faculty, and practitioners in the field. Examples of appropriate residencies include but are not limited to sessions at the Storrs campus, attendance and participation in approved regional national or international professional conferences.
