As a culminating experience, the student then synthesizes the three disciplines in a capstone project. For information about the requirements of the B.I.S. Program, look at the B.I.S. web site at weber.edu/bis/. » Program Prerequisite: Enroll into the B.I.S. Program with an interview with the B.I.S.
