Required Coursework
Talent Development

Theory into Practice

In the Masters degree in Talent Development students must successfully complete 33 semester hours of required coursework. Students must also complete a final Capstone Project before graduation. The final capstone project will enable the student to demonstrate their overall level of knowledge and skill instead of a thesis. Because this program is geared towards working professionals, a capstone project provides them the opportunity to apply the concepts learned in the program directly to a real-world problem. The intent of the capstone project is for students to apply in detail all of the concepts learned in their program in order to fully develop and implement talent development initiatives. The final Capstone Project must focus on a researchable problem, new creative work, or innovative area of application (i.e. strategic employee development, performance improvement).
