Capstone Experience: 3-6 Credits

Each student completing a B.S. or B.A. in Computer Science is required to engage in a capstone experience of three or more credits: either CIS 480  or @CIS 490 . To complete this requirement, a student prepares a formal proposal for approval by the Computer Science faculty, performs the proposed work, and presents written and oral reports to the Computer Science Department. Most students choose to complete their capstone experience through a credit internship (@CIS 490 ).

One of the following

• CIS 480 - Senior Project 3-6 Credit(s)
• @CIS 490 - Computer Science Internship 1-6 Credit(s) (taken for 3-6 credits)
