The School of Computing Science at the University of Glasgow are seeking
project proposals for our Software Team Projects course for the 2020-21
academic year.
Each year we run a course that introduces students to the challenges of
working in teams on software projects for real world customers. The
course runs for six months and gives students the opportunity to engage
in projects that have real world impact and work with customers with a
range of expertise and experiences. Students take on the responsibility
for negotiating with customers, agreeing and prioritising requirements,
and managing project timelines and deliverables. They are also required
to continually demonstrate their progress to their customers, gather
feedback and adjust to new priorities and demands. Customers benefit
from having students work on turning their ideas into reality: a
significant proportion of previous projects are actively being developed
or deployed to real users.
A customer can be any individual or unit external to Computing Science –
another academic department of the University, a charity, a social
enterprise, an SME or a large international company.
The deadline for submitting proposals is 31st August.
See the proposal submission site to find out more information.
