We believe it is our responsibility to provide the opportunities and tools necessary to integrate this knowledge and abilities into the students&#8217; personal and professional identity, and to provide the student with a greater understanding of the diversity, interdependence, and interrelatedness of the world.<\/p>\n<h4>Capstone<\/h4>\n<p>The Capstone project is designed collaboratively by the student and the student&#8217;s advisor as either fieldwork or a research project and should integrate and apply the knowledge, skills, and outcomes of the collective experiences the student has undertaken in his\/her university career. The project will be documented in a final portfolio or paper and submitted to the student&#8217;s advisor, and archived by the psychology program.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><!-- close content main div --><\/div><\/div><div id='av-layout-grid-1'  class='av-layout-grid-container
