The capstone project in the department of Asian and Middle Eastern Studies is meant to demonstrate the cumulative language and critical thinking and analysis skills developed by students over the course of their undergraduate studies. It consists of a thesis at least 6000 words long, in which students must synthesize research in primary language sources (i.e. texts, films, or other forms of cultural production in the original language of students’ declared subplan) with secondary research.
Students are required to complete AMES 3001W before taking AMES 4901W.
Students who double major in CLA and choose to complete the capstone requirement in their other CLA major may waive the Asian and Middle Eastern Studies capstone, but must take another course from Group A to replace AMES 4901W. All major requirements in both majors must be completed in order to waive the Asian and Middle Eastern Studies capstone.
