The purpose of the Capstone is to bring together important themes and concepts that students have learned about throughout their undergraduate experience. Students will use that knowledge to find and coherently summarize the intersection of a topic of their choosing with a key developmental topic focused on in this course.

Students who double major within CLA and choose to complete the capstone requirement in their other CLA major may waive the Developmental Psychology capstone, but they do need to replace the 3 credits with another CPSY elective course. Double majors whose second major is outside of CLA are required to complete the Developmental Psychology capstone.
