Course Overview
This course has students continuing to work in interdisciplinary teams to design, develop, and build a mobile or web-based application. Projects from this course may come from industry but can also be team-pitched entrepreneurship-based projects. If the latter, student teams will tightly integrate their work from their practicum alongside their work and effort in the Entrepreneurship course. This collaborative team-based approach gives students another opportunity to demonstrate their successful processes during project realization and how to either effectively communicate with clients or how to become entrepreneurs of a technology startup. Other project features may include e-commerce and enhanced security measures within the distributed computing application.
