Our company has been serving customers for decades. We want to revamp our appointment system as it is outdated.

We would like to collaborate with students to design an improved appointment scheduling system.

This will involve several different steps for the students, including:

• Familiarizing themselves with our company’s target market, products and services.
• Researching features of scheduling designs.
• Producing a wireframe or mock-up of the resulting system’s user interface.
• Testing the design with users and making improvements.

Bonus steps in the process would also include:

• Recommending new features to include in our appointment scheduling system.
• Prototyping multiple possible scheduling designs.

By the end of the project, students should demonstrate:

• Familiarity with our target market, products and services
• Understanding of scheduling design features
• Design of a scheduling wireframe
• Refinement of the design through feedback

Bonus steps would include:

• Recommending new features for our scheduling system
• Providing multiple wireframes or mockups for different designs

Final deliverables should include

• A final report.
• A presentation.

Students will connect directly with us for mentorship throughout the project. We will be able to provide answers to questions such as:

• Our products and services
• Our current platform and scheduling system
• Input on choices, problems or anything else the students might encounter.

In order to complete this project, students can self-teach, but it is beneficial to be familiar with:

• UI / UX design principles

Nice to haves for students include

• Knowledge of usability testing

Again, students can complete this project without any of the prior knowledge listed here. Students will be expected to research and learn more about the above as the project goes along.

We can provide students with:

• A walkthrough / tutorial of our current products and platform
