Capstone Project
The purpose of the capstone project is to assess the student’s ability to integrate knowledge of MFT theories, models, and research with clinical practice. There are two portions to the capstone project: 1) a theory of change paper and 2) a clinical presentation. Each portion is described in more detail below. Students must pass both parts of the capstone project in order to graduate from the program.
Theory of Change Paper Students will write a 15-20 page theory of change paper of professional, journal quality using primary source material that addresses from an integrative perspective his or her primary theoretical orientation for treating relational systems.
