We often have students ask us how they could go about finding people from CSE who would want to join their project or from CSE students, looking to connect with people with other (business, etc) talents. Looks like UW Foster School has designed a solution. Check this out.

After trying a wide variety of rather inefficient tools to help BPC teams connect with potential team members, the Buerk Center and SEBA (Science and Engineering Business Association) partnered to develop our own UW Team Formation website! Please share this with your students, and check out the new site here: http://foster.washington.edu/
To use this new tool, students first setup a profile—are you a team looking for a team member with specific skills, or someone with skills looking for a great team to join? To get set up:
· Go to foster.washington.edu/
· Select whether you want to sign-up as a team or an individual
· Register your account information (upper-right)
· Login and edit your account
· All information will be reviewed and approved within a few days
· Browse for teams to join or people to join your team
Students from any college or university in the state of Washington are invited to use this site as well—find partners on your own campus, or create a multi-campus team. However, this site is intended for student use only, and all submissions are reviewed before posting.
Best,
Amy
