Who Are We?
We are a group of Computer Science and Health Information Science at University of Victoria. Our goal is to implement new tools and improve available tools in order to provide better user experience for the current and future students.
About UVic
The University of Victoria is one of the largest post-secondary institutions in British Columbia, with over twenty thousand undergraduate and graduate students enrolled.
In such a large university like this, it can be challenging for students to find study spaces on campus, especially with how complicated the university has made it; with its current set of systems being spread across different websites.
However, with a dedicated website for booking study spaces like StudyUp where everything is centralized and filterable, the process could be streamlined considerably and made easier.
What is the Study Up Project?
Founded by students from the University of Victoria (UVic) on September 9th, 2022; StudyUp’s goal is to unify UVic’s existing study space booking systems under one centralized system that can be both filterable and easy to use for students.
This goal of ours was motivated by the lacking of a centralized study space booking system, with most of these current UVic systems fragmented across buildings; causing confusion or wasted time for students.
(Current Study Space Booking System for UVic’s McPherson Library, Mearns Centre, and Priestly Law Library)
To approach this issue, StudyUp intends to provide UVic students with our developed centralized website, StudyUp, for them to comfortably book study space rooms through.
