Last Friday, students from Singapore Management University’s (SMU) Information Systems Application Programme showcased their capstone projects.
The students, divided into teams of 4-6, developed apps for clients ranging from voluntary welfare organisations (VWOs) to multinational companies (MNCs). The teams had to write the programs, manage stakeholders, and perform user testing.
One team developed an app that allows VWOs with food shortages to select and reserve supplies from Food from the Heart, a non-profit organisation that channels unused food to those in need.
Another developed a social crowdsourcing app that connects volunteers to their pilot platforms.
Other projects include bookkeeping apps as well as an app allowing Singapore residents to freelance as tour guides.
