From: Catherine Wong <catw...@stanford.edu> I hope you had a wonderful break, and I wanted to encourage you to apply to an *Engineers for a Sustainable World (ESW) <http://esw.stanford.edu/>* team I'm leading with Nick Hershey <nhers...@stanford.edu>. Last year, while building healthcare software in East Africa, Nick and I found that many international organizations are unable to collect data from the communities they serve. Thus, our goal this year is to build a platform that allows for communication with and data collection from the nearly *60% of the global population that uses cellphones but does not have internet access*. Our plan is to build an extension to Google Forms that allows surveys to be sent via SMS or voice calls.
To achieve this goal, we're partnering with mobile technology groups around the world and looking for five students (software engineers, UI/UX designers, and one partner relations) to help us out. Participants will enroll in CEE 177X <http://explorecourses.stanford.edu/search?view=catalog&filter-coursestatus-Active=on&page=0&catalog=&academicYear=&q=cee177x&collapse=> /S <http://explorecourses.stanford.edu/search?view=catalog&filter-coursestatus-Active=on&page=0&catalog=&academicYear=&q=cee177s&collapse=>, ESW's international project classes, and should be prepared to enroll during the winter and spring. Depending on funding, some members may travel to implement our technology in India. *Apply here by Wednesday, January 5th, 11:59pm! <https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1udUV7P2tieSAohYaoyIsoGgKknRCXHttcO6rh4ebvUM/viewform>* Thanks!
