ENVS 490: Senior Capstone


This course is required for all ENVS majors (BA and BS) in their final semester prior to graduation. During this course you will develop a capstone portfolio that includes examples of past coursework and has written reflections evaluating your academic growth throughout the major.

ENVS 490 will draw on and require students to reflect on connections made throughout their time as an ENVS major. To best prepare for your ENVS 490 experience, please keep a portfolio of your work that includes samples from your ENVS 131 field journal, or similar class at Oxford, samples of your best work in each of the four intermediate breadth courses, samples of your best work from electives and samples of field journals or lab assignments. Maintaining this completed course work history will give you the best foundation for your capstone experience.
