An interdisciplinary capstone project culminating in a research paper (15-30 pages) or examination (covering primary and secondary texts). The project is directed by a faculty supervisor. Depending on the nature of the topic, the supervisor may advise the student to secure the participation of additional faculty from at least one other department. Under the committee format, the faculty committee will oversee the project and assess the student’s progress. If no committee is established, all oversight and evaluation will be performed by the faculty supervisor. Permission of faculty supervisor required.
