Throughout the Capstone Projects course, students will engage in several key activities to gain course credit and achieve meaningful outcomes for their project. The primary activities include:

Project Analysis and Assessment involves students conducting a thorough analysis of the client's business to identify pain points, challenges, and opportunities. This process includes evaluating business processes, resources, and overall needs to formulate a comprehensive understanding of the client's situation.

Development of Strategic Solutions is based on the analysis, where students develop practical, innovative solutions and strategic recommendations tailored to address the identified issues. They apply academic theories and industry concepts to create actionable plans that align with the client's goals.

Ongoing Communication and Collaboration requires students to maintain regular communication with the client and stakeholders, ensuring that their solutions are refined based on feedback and aligned with the client's evolving needs.

The deliverables that students will submit to the employer are:

Statement of Work - Proposal will be a detailed proposal (1000-2500 words) outlining the project's scope, objectives, deliverables, and timelines. This document includes an analysis of the business's pain points, challenges, and opportunities. The proposal must be approved by both the instructor and the employer. The finalized proposal is submitted after incorporating feedback from the instructor and the client.

Confidentiality Agreement is a signed document that ensures the confidentiality of the client's sensitive information. This agreement is prepared and signed by students by the end of Week 4 and uploaded to the course platform.

Final Project Plan - Written Report will be a comprehensive report (2500-5000 words) that details the students' analysis, proposed solutions, and strategic recommendations. This report includes an evaluation of the challenges faced, methods used for assessment, and actionable recommendations for the client.

Final Project Plan Presentation will involve creating a presentation (15-20 high-quality slides) summarizing the project from the identification of the challenge to the implementation of the solutions. Students will present this in a 20-minute session followed by a 10-minute Q&A with the client. The presentation showcases their findings and recommendations in a clear and professional manner.
