Capstone Projects to Be Presented
Three School of Marine & Environmental Affairs Capstone Project teams will present a synthesis of their work and the findings to their client(s) on Friday, February 25th, 2022. Capstone presentations are the culminating experience of a team project that begins early in the first-year of the MMA. Students are selected to projects based on their preferences and interests, and work closely with a client and faculty advisor to tackle a real-world, practical problem or issue to produce a final report for the client.
Each presentation, including time for audience Q&A, will last 25-30 minutes, and will take place via Zoom.
