A showcase of digital talent at EXPOTEES

EXPOTEES 2011 was the sixth annual showcase of students’ digital projects which demonstrate innovation, research and development in a wide range of computing subjects – from advanced computer technology to those centred on entertainment.

The students were asked to undertake an in-depth exploration of a chosen subject area and demonstrate the ability to research, analyse, synthesise, and creatively apply what they have studied. The project is often in an area they have gained an interest in either via a work placement or through their studies. Some students delivered projects which had external clients and require project managing to industry standard.

The EXPOTEES awards was held after the EXPOTEES exhibition to celebrate students’ achievements. Prizes included fantastic internship opportunities with industry-leading companies including UbiSoft, CBeebies, and Visualsoft. We we’re proud to sponsor and judge the Website Design and Development and Social Media award. It was a great privilege to be involved in such a prestigious showcase event, and inspiring to meet the exciting new graduates from Teesside University.

Exhibition content represents a cross section of the University’s final year work and as such, it demonstrates the full spectrum of subjects taught at the School of Computing.

The event attracted guests from industry, education, business and the public service sector, and provides an amazing opportunity for students to discuss their work with industry professionals and showcase it to potential employers.
