Ball State University CAP:IC

Student Thesis Project Awards

Beginning in the fall of 2004, CAP:IC will begin awarding annual recognition on top student thesis projects that have a focus in the Indianapolis region. Students, both undergraduate and graduate, will be recognized at a year-end reception with alumni and partners to open an exhibit of Indianapolis-focused student work.

To be eligible, students should be in contact during the development of their thesis projects with CAP:IC. The Center maintains a list of project ideas, but any thesis project is eligible as long as it has a location in or connection to the Indianapolis area.

Projects will be evaluated on several factors, including:

Multi-disciplinary development or application of thesis project.
Creativity and introduction of new concepts.
Relevancy to current issues in Indianapolis, including current initiatives and plans.
Awareness and respect for physical and cultural context.
Involvement of community, firms, agencies, businesses, and/or organizations in thesis process.
Presentation and communication techniques.
