Engaged Learning Capstone

This engaged learning course (PAM 4950) , taught by Professor Maureen Waller, offers students the opportunity to integrate and apply knowledge and skills they have learned in their coursework by addressing a real-world question presented by a community partner. Students will work collaboratively on an applied research project, produce a professional report, and brief community members on the outcomes and recommendations of their research.

- A Decade of Parents Apart: Trends, Challenges and Opportunities Moving Forward (2020 Capstone Report)
