The IDS Capstone is the culminating experience of the IDS program, allowing students to demonstrate the skills and knowledge they have gained in their program of study. The IDS program trains students in the theory and practice of development with an emphasis on ethics and cultural sensitivity. IDS capstone projects, which are pro-bono consultancies, have allowed students to make significant contributions to the work of dozens of leading development organizations, including government agencies, international organizations, NGOs, and consulting firms.

Capstone Sequence

Development Studies Pre-Capstone Workshop (1 Credit) 

Second-year students complete the groundwork for the spring-semester capstone project: they contact potential client organizations and negotiate the terms-of-reference for their project.

IDS Capstone Course (3 Credits) 
In cooperation with their client and under the supervision of their respective professor, student teams undertake the projects negotiated in the fall, visiting specific project sites over the spring break.

As a program generally geared to practitioners, most IDS students do not complete a thesis.  However, some students may choose to do so because it is expected of MA programs in their countries or it is expected of a discipline in which they may want to pursue a Doctorate.  For this reason, the IDS program allows students to do a thesis project as part of their area of specialization. Writing a thesis requires the student to find an advisor among faculty in the University, and it counts towards 6 credits of your 18 credit area of specialization.  Deciding to write a thesis does not absolve students from completing the Capstone project, which is required for the degree.
