Why I like working at Edlab?

• Ability to work with researchers and discuss and develop on the ideas, do usability studies.
• Work on your own idea or develop on others idea - collaboratively
• Find interesting people at the seminars from them one can learn a lot
• Great team to work with.
• Publish papers on the work you have done and collaboratively write papers (especially Hui Soo)
• Learn from your lessons of failure of launching, developing or marketing the idea
• Get involved in all aspects of Software Development Life Cycle (right from Server Setup - vmware, proposal writing, use cases, getting feedback in D&R, coding, testing through focused groups and finally launching.)
