Press release translated from @Press.ne.jp
Kirirom Institute of Technology, a university that aims to develop global leaders from emerging countries to lead the new era. The university focuses on internship programs targeted at enhancing students’ programming skills. With the appointment of a new CTO, we are proud to announce that we have released 10 apps and Chrome extensions in 6 weeks.
The target students are divided into groups of 5-8 persons per team for this program. The team will work on application development over a course of 4 to 6 weeks using the Flutter framework or Chrome extension development utilizing HTML, CSS, and Javascript. These applications will be made public. The team will study the databases and frameworks over 3 weeks, and then work on devising and developing the product ideas which will be released in the next 3 weeks. We aim to improve the students’ understanding of the requirements, implementation, and development speed through the release of the app to the market or webstore.
At Kirirom Institute of Technology, we are training student engineers who can function in English, as well as entrepreneurs, whose projects could be incorporated with the investments of angel investors. We plan to strengthen the technical capabilities of each individual, release useful apps, and extend support for projects ordered by other companies.
Each app can be downloaded from the marketplace, and extensions can be downloaded from the Chrome Web Store.
