The York Capstone Network

A place to find inspiration, support and resources to
advance your capstone teaching and learning experience

At YCN we foster excellence in capstone teaching and learning through forging a strong community of practice around capstones at York. Together, we discuss capstone course best practices, how to integrate projects into courses, ways of liaising with external partners, and how to support student success through innovative teaching strategies.
