The MDGPE Portfolio showcases both finished dissertations and project or internship reports we consider fine exemplars of the work done and to be developed by future students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On this page, we also feature sample individual or group projects from the program’s courses. As well as projects that have either been developed within the scope of the master program or shortly after and that have been distinguished or are published “out there” and are worthwhile reviewing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
