IPE 2019

International Project Experience 2019

Use this site to navigate our project sites:

This is the public landing page of this year's international project experience. Five teams of four students spend six weeks in San José working on their HSLU thesis on tasks provided by local startup companies. A private sponsor supports their flights and part of their accommodation costs.

Some project and most of the internal sites are open to members of our group only. So you might get error messages if you are not logged in.

International Project Experience is a course offered by the school of computer science at LUASA (Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts). Take a look at the concept of IPE.
