Saint Catharine College (CLOSED)

Subject:

Description:

This course serves as both the Capstone Course for the Associate's degree in Liberal Arts Program, as well as the Sophomore Seminar for the Bachelor's degree in Liberal Arts Program. The course is designed to expose students to the interdisciplinary nature of the Arts and Sciences. Students will be asked to explore ideas, research concepts and theories, maintain a journal for personal reflection, and create a project. The project will have two components: a written research paper and an exciting and innovative presentation. Students must include the application of a social/ethical component in their projects. Both project components should reveal the students' understanding of how intellectual contributions from various thinkers who represent separate disciplines can be systematized and integrated into a coherent expression. This course will offer students the opportunity for engaging dialogue, independent study, reflection, and the prospect of generating their own ideas. Emphasis will be placed on the students' ability to integrate concepts and theories from their own particular area of concentration, along with other areas within the Liberal Arts. Prerequisite: Students must be in the final semester of earning their Associate's degree in Liberal Arts, or in at least the second year of earning their Bachelor'sdegree in Liberal Arts.
