Interactive Media Design (IMD) is now accepting Applied Research Project Applications for Winter 2022 In-Class Projects
Posted on Tuesday, November 30th, 2021
On behalf of the Office of Applied Research, Innovation & Entrepreneurship (ARIE) at Algonquin College, I am pleased to announce this call for proposals for in-class client projects for the Winter 2022 semester.
Interested companies can apply using the application form HERE. Our onboarding practice is to screen the online applications and invite the most promising proposals to a ‘Pitchfork’ session. Candidates are asked to do a 15-minute pitch via Zoom Meetings with interactive Q&A. The review panel is comprised of ARIE project managers, facilitators, and professors from the School of Media and Design who collectively select the projects that are ‘best-fit’ for our programs.
Key dates for Winter 2022 projects:
- The deadline for applications is Friday, December 10th
- ‘Pitchfork’ sessions will be scheduled between December 20th – 31st for invited candidates
- Chosen candidates will be notified by January 7th
- Projects starting the week of January 28st
- Projects to be completed by end of term (mid-April)
Types of projects considered:
- Websites (New designs and re-designs)
- User interface prototypes for web and mobile apps
- Animated videos
If your organization is looking for any of the above, we encourage you to submit an online application. In addition to registered for-profit businesses, we will be able to support a limited number of not-for-profits and social enterprises.
