Discovery and Advancement for Regenerative and Integrated Soil Systems
Instructional Contributions
NARS 487- Capstone
North Carolina A&T State University
Students will undertake a project and written assignments designed to encourage self-analysis of career and intellectual interests. The student will develop a detailed project proposal and complete a final capstone project linking the student’s area of study with career and intellectual interests. The final written project will consist of research, reviews, and analysis targeting a specified objective. A presentation of the project is required.
An in-depth study of soil formation processes, morphology, and taxonomic classification. Students learn to interpret soil surveys and apply classification systems to land-use planning and management.
