CAPSTONE PROJECT

As the graduation requirement, apart from taking the thesis, students of FISIP Undip’s Communication Science also have the option of doing another project equivalent to the thesis called Capstone. The Capstone provides an opportunity for students to prove that their works are accepted professionally by industries that are relevant to their specialization, namely the fields of journalism and strategic communication.

Mostly, the Capstone is the result of the collaboration between the students from the two concentrations. The journalism concentration students will focus on the production of the work, while the Strategic Communication students will focus on the communication with the clients, sponsorship management and marketing communications. Apart from having the professional abilities, the Capstone also opens up the networks for the students with the industry. Thus, it opens up wider job opportunities after their graduation. Several companies which have became the partners of the Communication Science include Central Java TVRI, iNews Semarang, Kompas TV, Radio Republik Indonesia (RRI), GOJEK, Semarang City Government, and Central Java Kominfo. The following information are some examples of the ‘Capstone’ which have been produced by our students.
