GROVE CITY, Pa. – Three Grove City College students, under the guidance of two senior staff members from B-Three Solutions, completed a “real world” application to help companies maintain electronic communications with their customers.
The students, Addison Mayberry ’11 of Fallon, Nev., Aaron Miniger ’11 of Halifax, Pa. and Ashley Christian Straw ’10 of Havre De Grace, Md., with the cooperation of Dr. Dorian Yeager, professor of computer science and mathematics, were able to use the work on the application to satisfy project requirements of their software engineering course.
The application chosen for development by the student team utilized technology that current students use extensively: text messaging through mobile phones. The application, known as B-Three Mobile Connect, will be implemented by B-Three Solutions as one component of a project for a client.
As conceived by B-Three Solutions and developed by the student team, the application provides an easily accessible Web interface that enables the client to sign up customers who have mobile phones, allowing those customers to receive updates from the client. Customers can manage their accounts through their mobile phones and through the client’s website. Through the administrative module of B-Three Mobile Connect, the client can compose new messages, opinion polls and manage the list of subscribers.
The project is the latest accomplishment in an ongoing relationship between B-Three Solutions and Grove City College. The company has supervised two earlier application development projects and three students have worked as interns at B-Three Solution.
B-Three Solutions Vice President of Operations, Jamie Schultz, and Director of Project Management, Bob Elliot, provided guidance for the student team.
