Timeline Decisions

A lot of us learned new things regarding capstones and their requirements and/or things we can’t (or are strongly recommended not to) do for capstones.

What is a capstone?
I think that a capstone is a project that can showcase your skills and passions to peers, instructors, and future employers. I hope to get a great major portfolio piece from my capstone. The ultimate goal is to get a job from capstone. Two semesters should give someone plenty of time to develop and produce […]
