DubsConnect
Connect. Interact. Succeed.
Overview
In our society today, many young students have been forced to be a part of the race called life. They are under immense pressure to prioritize their academics and career over all other aspects of their lives, often sacrificing their mental and physical well-being.
Our website prototype, DubsConnect, aims to reduce the stressors and concerns that many students have regarding finding and applying for internships. By understanding their needs, we hope to have easened the burdens that come with the hunt for a career and brighter future.
Project Background
Duration: 9 weeks (January 10, 2022 – March 14, 2022)
Team: 3 members
Location: University of Washington – Seattle
Users: Students at University of Washington
This project was completed as a part of an undergraduate User-Centered Design course at the University of Washington in Winter of 2022. We selected UW students as our users since it is a user group that we are familiar with and is accessible for in-person interactions during the COVID-19 pandemic. We proceeded to conduct research, design, prototype, and evaluate with our target users to create our solution, DubsConnect.
