On January 4, 2024, we hosted the AGU POLS Capstone Project Fair, and it turned out to be a fantastic celebration of creativity and ideas. Our seniors brought their best work to the table, from competitive board game battles to engaging podcast discussions, all designed to explore Political Science and International Relations in fresh and interactive ways. The energy and enthusiasm in the room were contagious, and the projects truly showcased the talent and originality of our students.
In the Capstone I projects, we experiment with games and interactive media as tools for teaching and research.
