Introduction

A Capstone Project is a two-semester process wherein students conduct an independent research on a problem or question of their choice, engage with the intellectual debates in the appropriate disciplines, and - with the supervision of a faculty mentor - produce a significant paper that reflects a deeper understanding of the topic. 

Capstone Projects are designed to encourage students to:

• Think critically
• Solve challenging problems
• Develop skills like:
• Oral communication
• Public speaking
• Media literacy
• Research skills
• Teamwork
• Planning
• Self-sufficiency
• Goal setting

How to choose a topic?

Writing a capstone project takes lots of your time and energy by itself. Therefore, every second count and shouldn’t be wasted on long searches for a perfect capstone idea. Try to formulate your theme as soon as you can so you can start working on it.

Start with brainstorming and jot down everything linked to your subject that comes to your mind, then relate what you have, read relevant literature, and narrow down your topic in a blank sheet. 

A good capstone topic should follow the following points:

1. A capstone project topic will contain an issue that you will solve in the course of your investigation.
2. It needs to be interesting.
3. Finding enough sources to understand the topic better.
4. It should be able to hook you and the person reading your project.
5. You can start by defining a broad subject and later narrow down your focus to the main point.
6. Do not select a theme that is too easy or too complicated for you, maintain a balance.
