ENVIR 492:
Post-Capstone Seminar
This seminar asks you to analyze
and build on the fieldwork that you did during ENVIR 491. Furthermore,
your Capstone Experience can be a sort of bridge between your education
and your next steps, and this seminar will therefore help you prepare
for those next steps--either in the job market or in graduate school.
The Post-Capstone Seminar
is designed to help you both build skills and acquire knowledge. By the
end of this course, you will have:
1) Analyzed how your Capstone Experience relates to major environmental
issues and to your college education.
2) Strengthened your ability to convey information orally and visually.
Preparing a presentation for our conference at the end of the quarter
will help you build these skills. In addition, you will practice discussing
your capstone and your Environmental Studies education with a variety
of audiences, including potential employers.
3) Honed your writing skills. Indeed, this course is designed to help
you create an essay that you could use as a writing sample for graduate
school applications and for potential employers.
4) Explored some of your future career or graduate study possibilities,
as well as the steps necessary to realize those possibilities.
