Prerequisites

Students should discuss the following prerequisites with their academic advisors before seeking help elsewhere. Students with any special requests in this regard must address them to the department chair, with the support of their academic advisor.

Capstone 1:
The prerequisites for Capstone-1 are junior standing and permission of the department chair. Students who have a strong background and wish to take Capstone-1 early (before they have official junior standing) should confer with their academic advisors.
Capstone 2:
The three prerequisites for Capstone-2 are Capstone-1, senior standing, and permission of the department chair. Permission to register will be granted only to those students who have made enough progress in their project work to indicate a high likelihood of timely project completion. This assessment will be made by the department chair, in consultation with the faculty. A key factor is the recommendation from the project advisor with additional input from the academic advisor.
