This is the capstone course for the Communication and Media Studies major. COM 401W will be themed (note: themes will rotate year-to-year; consult with program faculty and the course schedule for more information). Areas of assessment will include regular reading and discussion in a seminar-style course format; the composition of an independent, original piece of research or the production of a creative and compelling piece of media; and the refinement of professional skills, including the submission of a polished resume and cover letter as well as the completion of simulated Zoom and in-person job interviews.
