INTNLREL191

Students will conduct research and write an extended research paper on a topic in international relations. A wide range of topics and research methods can be pursued. The prototypical capstone paper will build off of and further develop a research paper that had been written for another Stanford course. Students who wish to research a new topic need to have that research question and methodology conceived and approved prior to course enrollment. All students will fill out an application during the fall quarter to ensure research questions and designs are acceptable by the first day of class. This course satisfies the capstone requirement for the Program in International Relations.
