The School of Computing invites NIC Partners to submit software project ideas for its 2024-25 Senior Design capstone course.

Senior Design is the capstone program for Nebraska School of Computinghttps://unl.us13.list-manage.com/track/click?u=aa74e0e500b559fc0e6fc7a2f&id=560993b8e8&e=563deffe7f students majoring in data science, computer science, software engineering and computer engineering. Students work in teams of five to six on a tech project sponsored by industry or university faculty. The two-semester course provides real-world, professional experience preparing students for their careers.

Why sponsor a Senior Design project?

1. Sponsors request a project, and students develop a project/solution for the sponsor. The sponsor owns 100% of the intellectual property. 2. Sponsors save on costs. Outsourcing or hiring one full-time employee costs more than a Senior Design project. 3. Senior Design serves as an excellent recruiting pipeline for School of Computing students. Senior Design sponsors often hire students from their teams after graduation. 4. Senior Design offers sponsors and students an opportunity to innovate and collaborate on fresh ideas.

Experience the “Once Upon a Time…The Sherman-Howard County Baseball League," a unique town team baseball photo collection that is making its 26th stop at Nebraska Innovation Campus.

Put on your jersey, grab a friend or former teammate and spend the afternoon reminiscing about afternoons at the ballpark. What started out with a 1926 Howard County Championship photo of Randy Lukasiewicz’s grandfather has not stopped. A long time ago, Randy asked Coach Osborne, who has roots back to Farwell, NE, a small Polish village rich in baseball tradition, what he should do with all his photos, Coach Osborne simply replied, “I’m sure you’ll think of something.” He was right!

Stop by the 2nd floor gallery space and stroll through the countless photos and memorabilia from the memorable era of Sunday afternoons spent at the ballpark with the sounds of wooden bats and steel cleats.

This exhibit is free and open to the public daily from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.
