Expected outcomes and deliverables

Students will deliver a final solution for the challenge defined by the organization. The solution should be presented in the form of a minimally-viable product. In some cases, project complexity may lead to the organization determining that a proof of concept (i.e. prototype) is sufficient. All work submitted by the student must also include all code and supplementary materials, as well as a comprehensive report on their findings and details of the technical solution. Students will present final solutions and recommendations to representative(s) from the organization. If applicable, future collaborative work between students and your organization will be determined mutually.
