Capstone projects from the UW Information School are concrete examples of how we design and build effective solutions to the information problems people and organizations face every day. The Information School Capstone Event showcases projects from the University of Washington Information School’s Bachelor of Science in Informatics, Master of Science in Information Management (MSIM), and Master of Library and Information Science (MLIS) programs. The evening begins promptly at 6:00 pm with "Information Overload," a lively round-robin of project introductions. Following is an evening of poster presentations, networking and hors d’oeuvres. Guests are invited to see how iSchool students have been using information as a tool for transformation in their academic, professional and personal lives. Capstone project collaborators include organizations from the public, private and non-profit sectors.
