Purdue Global BS IT - End of first term

[9yeire]

Great job! Could you give an idea of what the Capstone Units are like? What topics do you go through?

It's a 10-week individual project, one unit per week. You choose from a selection of IT scenarios related to the program. Could be building a website or expanding a computer network, etc. Each week you have a live seminar, participate in mandatory online discussions and submit assignments. The assignments are standard project management documents such as Project Charter, WBS, etc. The assignments could be in Word, Excel, PowerPoint or even an audio recording. The assignments follow the lifecycle of a project, so you start with a project charter and end with a project archive. I found it very useful and relevant. If you know Project Management, then it will come easier to you. Hope that helps.

Oh nice, yeah that is pretty cool that it's an industry relevant project, very much in my wheelhouse. Thanks for all your info! Really helps us get a good idea of what to expect.
