Welcome to the Undergraduate Capstone Page!
This page is dedicated to helping you submit all of the documents required for your program.
Global University developed the Capstone requirement to help the university measure what students have learned during their program. The Capstone assignments give us the opportunity to compare student work done at the beginning of their program with work they do when they finish their program. We state in our catalog that when students graduate from GU, they will have a comprehensive knowledge of Old and New Testaments and Pentecostal theology. We also state that our students will demonstrate effective written and oral communication skills. Our accreditors want us to assess these things in order to demonstrate that we are accomplishing these goals, and giving our students a quality education.
By instituting the Capstone requirements we are now able to assess how well GU programs increase the knowledge and skill levels of our students. It is our intention to continually improve our programs, and this is one way in which we can assess how well we are doing and in what areas we need to improve.
