FOR 4020A/4020B - Capstone Experience/Project A & B

(3 units)

These culminating courses, which are to be taken after the student has completed all major core requirements, are designed to encourage students to integrate and apply the theory and research provided in Forensic Behavioral Studies curriculum to a research project or activity within a real-world setting, in an area of particular interest to the student. The student may choose to design and conduct a research project or to engage in activities in the community such as working in an education or enhancement project, volunteering time and service to a community organization, or engaging in consultation in the community. The specific project or experience will be determined by the student, in consultation with the Program Director, Program Coordinator, or designee. The course is to be taken in two parts to give the student ample time to develop and to apply the acquired knowledge base, critical thinking, problem solving, decision making, and communication skills in a positive and meaningful culminating experience that brings the student’s education and training to life in the real world.
