Website development Mobile app development Information technology Software development Machine learningSkills
website design web development researchLooking to elevate your organization, and bring it to the next level? Bring on students from Saskatchewan Polytechnic to be your student-consultants, in a project-based experience. Students will work on one main project over the course of the semester, connecting with you as needed with virtual communication tools.
Students in this program/course study and employ practical and theoretical concepts obtained in first year systems analysis and design courses by building an IT system. They will work as part of a development team on an IT problem for an external industry client. Their project will include the production and demonstration of functioning components of the system each release within deadlines set out in their project management documentation
Learners
Deliverables are negotiable and will seek to align the needs of the students and the organization.
Some final project deliverables might include:
- A 10-15 minute presentation on key findings and recommendations
- A detailed report including their research, analysis, insights and recommendations
- The complete source repository and software/application deliverable.
This course will run throughout 2 semesters (September 2022- April 2023). When considering this course, please note that there is a phase I and phase II. You would be agreeing to match with both courses for the full duration of the project. Students will increase course work and hours during the second phase of the project so please expect more than the allotted 48 hours of work for each student over the course of both semesters.
