Your research proposal for your Capstone Project should be written on a topic in which you feel an investment and that also is relevant to fields within the social sciences. What relevance does this issue have in your own life? Does it relate to your interests, and if so, how does it relate? What is your connection to the population you are researching? If the issue does not have relevance to you or you do not have a connection with the population, explain why not. What is the goal of your research? Are you using your research for the good of this population or solely for the enhancement of knowledge in general? Which is more important and why? Are they both equally important?
