Capstone Project Guidelines

Students pursuing the Master of Science in Applied Data Analytics (MS-ADA) must complete the 30 credit-hour program by a Capstone Project (DATA 5130). A Capstone Project is a variable credit course with a maximum of three credits and will draw upon areas of interest to the student. Students in their first year are recommended to start exploring potential project topics in consultation with the academic advisor and other faculty members in the program and complete the project over two consecutive semesters. For more details on how to proceed on the project, please refer to the MS-ADA Capstone Project Guidelines on the MS-ADA program website
