/45 contact hrs) This capstone is designed to be offered in the final term of a student's major. This course is planned to tie together the key learning objectives that faculty expect the student to have learned during the MSIT program at WUST within the student’s concentration. The purpose of this capstone course is to give students an opportunity to present their cumulative knowledge and skills in a simulated business environment. In this role, students will integrate key IT concepts they learned throughout their studies. During the first week of class, students are required to choose a topic of interest aligned with their concentrations. Following the selection of the big idea (topic of interest, statement of problem in practice), students will conduct a literature review on the chosen topic, develop a position paper, and eventually produce a final paper on how IT concepts are applied to real-life scenarios in a hypothetical business environment. Prerequisite(s): All Core courses and at least 1 concentration class. The Capstone must be taken in the last term of the program. Students can take up to three (3) courses concurrently with the capstone project course in the last quarter. MSIT Concentration Course Descriptions
