Viewed by Al-Quds Bard College as the capstone of the student's education in the liberal arts and sciences, the Senior Project is an extended piece of work growing out of the student's cumulative academic experience at the college. One course each semester is devoted to completing the Senior Project (SP I and SP II). A student can enroll in SP I after the student has earned at least 96 credit hours, has successfully moderated into a program, and has successfully completed the Senior Project Proposal Workshop (SPPW). Students ordinarily enroll in SPPW in the second semester of their third year, during which they begin developing a senior project idea, select an adviser, and become familiar with primary and secondary sources in their senior project topic. Students who fail to complete any of the senior project requirements will be ineligible to graduate from his/her program of study at AQB.
The senior project at AQB is a culmination of the educational process. Through this process, students are required to complete a satisfactory senior project in their related fields of study. The senior project process provides students with the opportunity to demonstrate proficiency in their areas of study. Through this journey, the students apply the knowledge and critical thinking skills gained during their study at AQB.
The senior project mission and philosophy ensures that every student is capable of producing a satisfactory senior project in the student’s area of study and can become a productive participant in the community. It also creates an opportunity for students to produce a project that allows them to demonstrate and exhibit the various skills needed for lifelong learning and success in their careers after graduation.
Below is an overview of the Senior Project requirement, followed by a step-by-step guide to the three-semester process taking you from conception to completion.
