Details

We're looking to build a product that maps the root causes to the World's Biggest Problems.


We would like to work with students to develop a new data visualization that is easy to maintain while providing an appealing interface for users. This will require skills in the MERN stack, knowledge of front-end and back-end web technologies, languages and frameworks.


This will involve several different steps for the students, including:

  • Researching different libraries and their associated advantages / disadvantages.
  • Conducting a needs analysis to determine which platform is most suitable.
  • Building a website, with our assistance in providing the content.
  • Providing training on updating and maintaining the website.
  • Creating documentation for future developers.

Bonus steps in the process would also include:

  • Testing prototypes with customers and refining ideas with feedback.
Deliverables

By the end of the project, students should demonstrate:

  • Understanding and successful identification of optimal web application development approach
  • Development of a web app using the most suitable languages, frameworks and technologies
  • Recommendations for web app maintenance

Bonus steps would include:

  • Testing the website with users and making improvements based on user input

Final deliverables should include

  • A website prototype.
  • A final report.
Mentorship

Students will connect directly with us for mentorship throughout the project. We will be able to provide answers to questions such as:

  • Our current products and website design
  • Our customer and industry insights
  • Input on choices, problems or anything else the students might encounter.
