UCOSP is expanding, and we need you!

Posted by Andrew Louis on June 22, 2010

UCOSP, the distributed undergraduate capstone course, is preparing for another year and we need your help!

Forgot what UCOSP is? Here’s a refresher.

Undergraduate Capstone Open Source Projects brings together students from coast to coast to work together on joint capstone projects. Students learn first-hand what distributed development is like. Each team has students from two or three schools, and uses a mix of agile and open source processes under the supervision of a faculty or industry lead.

Need to know more? We have answers to your questions on our About page.

In preparation for this September, we’re looking for:

  • Students: Work on an open-source project with other students from across the country—for credit! What could be better?
  • Faculty mentors: We’re looking to expand the number of schools participating this year.
  • Open source mentors: Are you involved in an open source project? Help a team of students make a contribution to your software.
  • Industry sponsors: We need your help to bring students together for a code sprint at the beginning of the semester.

If this has caught your interest, please get in touch via email: admin@ucosp.ca. Looking forward to hearing from you!
