Prerequisites

Registration is limited to officially admitted degree candidates in the Master of Liberal Arts, sustainability, consulting track. Candidates must be in good academic standing, have successfully completed the Harvard Extension School precapstone course ENVR E-597a in the prior spring term, and be ready to graduate in November with only the capstone left to complete (no other course registration is allowed simultaneously with the capstone). Candidates who do not meet these requirements are dropped from the course.

Notes

Not open to Secondary School Program students. Once the three week, on-campus session is complete, students, when they return home, will continue to work on their capstone research through the remainder of the summer, participate in an online capstone presentation, and submit their final projects in early September.
