As their final assignment at the University of Washington Bothell, dozens of fall graduates in Computer Science and Software Engineering (CSSE<\/a>) presented posters on their capstone projects at the North Creek Events Center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some of the capstones included internship experiences or other community-based projects with businesses or other partners that are now helping students turn their Bachelor of Science degrees into full-time jobs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For many, the exit ramp from the university was also an immediate entrance ramp to a tech career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Introduction as interns<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Alexander Morgenstern had only one free weekend in December before starting work the following Monday with a Seattle startup where he interned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt was a really cool opportunity,\u201d Morgenstern said of his project at Rhino Security Labs, a new Seattle cybersecurity company that tests client computers by simulating hacker attacks. \u201cI was getting my feet wet in the software industries world, building solutions and coming up with new ideas and ways to make a difference.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anthony Mbugua joined join T-Mobile later in January, moving up from intern to an associate software engineer. His internship project, a chatbot for T-Mobile\u2019s platform engineering team, showed him how classroom concepts can be applied in industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt was really cool seeing classes getting applied,\u201d Nguyen said of his project. \u201cWorking in an agile environment was very eye-opening.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Julia Owsen\u2019s project was to suggest navigation improvements for UW Bothell\u2019s own website. At the same time, she improved her skills in project management and working with a team in a professional environment. Owsen accepted a job as a software engineer at Cisco in San Jose, California.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Project-based capstones that connect students to real-world projects showcase how UW Bothell students are prepared for high-demand jobs in computer science and software engineering, said Bill Erdly, associate professor and division chair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Erdly was founding director of the computer science program in 1996. \u201cI look forward,\u201d he said, \u201cto this continuing to grow.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
