Course Description:
- This is an SMU-X course designed in collaboration with CitiVentures Innovation Lab. Citibank will supply a minimum of 5 projects ideas to select from. Students will form teams of 5 or 6, and select one of the Citibank project ideas to work on. Project selections do not need to be unique, meaning multiple teams can select the same project idea.
- Each student project team will be assigned to a Citibank sponsor and an SMU faculty supervisor. Citibank will provide project scope and management for student teams to have practical industry learning experiences. Student teams will have weekly check in meetings, either virtually or physically, with their Citibank sponsor.
- Citibank will specify the technologies to be used, including; development tools/languages, OS, database, 3rd party libraries, target deployment environment e.g. cloud environment.
Project deliverable:
- Student project teams will be expected to develop a working software application prototype, to be delivered to Citibank at the end of the course.
- A formal, in-person midterm and final presentation will be facilitated by Citibank.
