IS 497 Senior Seminar in Italian Studies
The Senior Seminar is the capstone course for the Italian Studies major at Franklin University. The seminar will create a forum for the research and presentation of an original senior project in English or Italian. The capstone seminar will not only seek to bring together work done in other courses in the Italian Studies major, but will offer the chance to reflect on and integrate academic travel courses into the student's final project. Possible final projects may take various forms, including: a thesis, a performance, a video essay, or a portfolio of creative work. Projects will be designed and completed in consultation with the instructor and the student's major advisor.
