Capstone Projects
A capstone project gives students the opportunity to investigate a field of research or specific project, and demonstrate the learning outcomes, graduate attributes, and skills acquired over the course of your degree. A capstone research project is independent work on a topic of your choice conducted under supervision. These projects are intended to be the final or penultimate piece of work completed as part of your degree. The Museum of Antiquities (UNEMA) currently offers four different capstone project opportunities: click each image below to learn more.
