The Capstone Experience
As part of the Information Technology and Communication Design Bachelor's degree programs, all students complete two semesters of capstone classes (CST400 and CST401) and complete a capstone project. During the first semester, students choose a project, select a faculty capstone advisor and complete a detailed plan for the creation of their project. In the second semester the capstone project is completed.
The capstone festival is where students present their finished projects to the School of ITCD faculty, CSUMB students and the broader community. Capstones for ITCD majors cover a wide spectrum of design and technical projects including complex web sites, programming projects, networking, animation, and visual identity packages. The projects are based on the student's emphasis in the major as well as the student's individual strengths and passions.
