Description:

Requires students to select a topic from any area of their studies and to read several papers from the current research literature in that area. Students must prepare an oral presentation and a paper on that topic, including a presentation and analysis. The final paper reviews current research progress, identifying current challenges and projections about future research directions. Group seminars focus on how to read and interpret an academic research paper, how to research an emerging topic, and how to write a professional paper of publication quality. The oral presentation requires students to apply the knowledge gained in prior course work to select a topic, understand and integrate classroom learning in researching the topic, and effectively communicate their findings to their peers and instructors.
