If you are considering graduate school, reach out to professors to find shared research interests. I've found success at Mizzou largely through the guidance of my professors and fellow graduate students, so I encourage any potential student to form connections within the program!

MUVR: shaping tomorrow’s innovators

MU students are harnessing the virtual to train for reality. Austin Barr is working with his fellow IT and computer science majors to raise awareness of the University of Missouri’s Virtual Reality Organization (MUVR) across campus and open the club and the Collaborative Research Environments for Extended Reality (CREXR) Lab to students from all disciplines.

Information technology students delve into web design with capstone project

The information technology capstone group set out to develop a degree audit program. Right now, IT degree audits can be a little daunting as students have numerous options to take electives around web and mobile app development, media technology, programming and cybersecurity. However, before they can proceed to advanced-level courses, students have to know which prerequisite courses are required.

Industrial engineering students reconfigure workflow layout for local manufacturing facility

For their capstone course, students studying industrial engineering work with a client to develop a solution to an engineering problem. This fall, one group was assigned to work with American Air Filter (AAF) to reconfigure their production layout for one of the company’s products.
