Professional Relevance Personal and
Professional Relevance. Your research proposal
for your Capstone Project should be written on a
topic in which you feel an investment and that
also is relevant to fields within the social
sciences. What relevance does this issue have in
your own life? Does it relate to your interests,
and if so, how does it relate? What is your
connection to the population you are researching?
If the issue does not have relevance to you or
you do not have a connection with the population,
explain why not. What is the goal of your
research? Are you using your research for the
good of this population or solely for the
enhancement of knowledge in general? Which is
more important and why? Are they both equally
important?

Your Capstone Project will focus on a specific
sample population for future research. In this
discussion, you will need to do two things.
First, explain the attributes of the sample
population that you plan to study. Then explain
the research methodology you will use to study
that population. Will you use a quantitative
approach, qualitative approach, or a mixture of
both? Which approach do you find most valuable
and why?

Describe how a functionalist, a conflict
theorist, and someone ascribing to symbolic
interactionism would explain the key issue and
the factors that have led to this issue.
Remember that you can draw on what you have
learned from your previous courses as well as
acceptable academic sources to refresh your
memory on these theories and then apply them to
your selected issue
