Institutional Learning Outcomes: Capstone Students integrate and apply the knowledge and skills acquired during their psychology honours degree by completing a capstone project related to their professional development goals. Students strengthen their research, writing, and analytical skills by conducting original research under the direction of a Psychology faculty member.
