ES 4000 - Senior Thesis (SUS)


Students are required to complete a 4 credit capstone course using the skills and knowledge gained from their experience in the Natural and Social Sciences (NSS). This involves developing a project or thesis that includes a literature review, critical thinking, data collection and analysis, written communication, oral communication, and project management. It is generally completed over two semesters as a 2 credit course each semester. During the fall semester students  identify a thesis advisor and develop a thesis proposal in a topic related to their major. During the spring semester students will complete and report on the thesis. Because the experience is tailored to each student’s needs all 4 credits can be completed in a single semester with permission from the instructor. Prerequisites: 75 credits earned and either be an Environmental Science or an Environmental Studies and Sustainability Major. Offered every semester. (2 Credits)
