About this site

Capstone News is an independent publication launched in August 2025 by Prof. William Nickley to support Industrial Design Capstone courses at The Ohio State University (OSU). Contributions by the OSU Industrial Design class of 2026.

Dr. Sébastien Proulx (2021) conceptualized the capstone newspaper, which has been used in industrial design capstone courses under his direction at Ohio State from 2019-2023, and under Nickley's direction 2024-present. You can access an archive of previous projects here, via the Ohio State Design Desis Lab page dedicated to capstone research.
