More than 15 teams of Michigan State University undergraduates are ready and waiting to help mid-Michigan businesses and nonprofits solve their complex digital problems.

As part of their final course in the ITMS-WP1Information Technology minor, students are required to work in cross-functional teams on a real-world IT (information technology) project.

They just need a few more “clients.”

“The students are capable of taking on a wide range of technology-related projects, because each team will comprise of students majoring in business, media and information, and computer science and engineering,” say Professors Constantinos K. Coursaris and Wietske van Osch, who are teaching the course through MSU’s Department of Media and Information.

In past semesters, students have developed websites and content management systems as well as database and workflow systems. They have produced promotional videos and developed social media strategies and online membership databases for various companies.

Proposals are now being accepted from area organizations for student teams to take on projects for the spring 2016 academic semester, starting in January and ending April 30. The ideal project is "hands-on" with a well-defined outcome that can be achieved by three to four students in 8-10 weeks.

To submit a project for consideration, please contact Dr. Coursaris via email by January 25, 2016, at coursari@msu.edu.
