Big things are happening at the StarTUp at the Armory!

Congratulations to Study Wise, a studying and task management system, for taking home the first place prize at the first annual TU Maker Fest. Study Wise not only won first place, but also a spot as a finalist in the College Cup. ? “I like how they left a lot of the rubric up for student interpretation, so it gave us a lot of room to really grow and take this project anywhere,” senior Grace Hardy who worked on Study Wise, said. ? Study Wise, along with TUrnUp and Coursesight, competed in the TU Maker Fest––a 24-hour sprint to create a product prototype to solve student issues––to "Develop a viable product prototype that addresses common issues faced by students". We so are proud of the hard work each group put into this event. ? Read all about this innovative event:?https://lnkd.in/ehXEKuUQ Thank you to The Towerlight for this wonderful write-up.
