Simon Fraser University is pleased to present its first official iOS app!
The project evolved from a Spring 2015 class competition involving 75 students in CMPT 275 Software Engineering I. The student's designed app will serve as the premier mobile communication tool for the University to inform and engage students, faculty, staff, and visitors across all campuses.
A steering committee consisting of members from SFSS, Faculty, Student Services, Facility Services, Ancillary Services, Safety & Risk Servies, IT Services, and University Communications are leading this project.
We hope you find the SFU App useful and we welcome your feedback as we continue development!
