SPL 6006 Sport Leadership Capstone

Offers students an opportunity to complete their academic experience by building on the themes  and leadership theories covered throughout the Sport Leadership program. The capstone  experience requires students to select a topic of academic and professional interest and complete  a research project to gain an in-depth understanding of the possible solutions to a leadership  problem in the sport industry. Students also share their experiences through the development of a  digital portfolio. The digital portfolio highlights the student’s skills, knowledge, development,  quality of writing, and critical thinking by showcasing a comprehensive collection of work  samples and artifacts from the student’s experiences in the sport leadership program. This  capstone experience will conclude with a defense of the research project and digital portfolio.
