SOAN 490 - Senior Seminar in Anthropology and Sociology I

This 1 credit course is the first in a two course capstone sequence for Sociology/Anthropology majors. It is designed to encourage reflection on personal/academic progress and life goals and to guide graduating seniors through the choice of careers and/or graduate programs. Students meet weekly to prepare materials to use in applying to professional jobs or graduate school. We work closely with the Career Center throughout the semester. Students organize a portfolio including a statement of purpose, resume or CV, and materials showcasing their progress and accomplishments in the major. Discussions this semester should help students select the work they polish for a wider audience in the second capstone course.

Prerequisites: Senior status, SOAN major.
Credits: 1
When Offered: (fall only)
NOTE: This course counts toward the 63-credit Liberal Arts and Sciences (LAS) graduation requirement.
