What is the Capstone Experience?

The Capstone event showcases the breadth of skills and expertise students develop in the Bachelor of Science in Informatics and Master of Science in Information Management programs. In these poster and oral presentations of their culminating projects, students demonstrate how they have been using information as a tool for transformation in their personal, academic and professional lives.
Capstone project collaborators include organizations from the public, private and non-profit sectors, and each project represents a concrete example of what it means to design and build novel applications of technology that meet the needs of people. With projects ranging from building social networking applications to improving services for homeless youth to supporting more efficient mass transit, the Capstone event is a great introduction to the ways the UW iSchool makes information work.
