The Capstone is designed to assess your ability to synthesize and apply the learning from all four SDS courses.
Whether you intend to earn the MicroMaster credential or continue on to pursue an in-person program, the credential is designed to be equivalent to one semester of work in the MIT IDSS on-campus program. In order to meet application requirements for competitive admission to the MIT IDSS and to other universities that accept the credential for campus credit, the course offers one final assessment in the Capstone.
