Result: A student app that students use to receive updates and news from the campus, get informed about upcoming events, check at their schedule, look at food outlet menus, book accommodation for the semester. Student can also look at Campus directory and contact faculty directly through the app.

Next steps would include:

  • Design discussion-flow for chatbot
  • Design of additional features and screens including Health and Safety and Career Day engagement features
  • Introduce the app to the other campuses
