The 4th Annual RJI Student Competition kicked off December 8th with Hearst Innovation's Matt McCue unveiling the company's eight projects to be solved before a room of over 50 MU students from across campus including journalism, computer science and business. McCue explained that this year's projects were focused on exploring mobile opportunities around Google's Android operating system.
This year's RJI Android Student Competition builds upon the prior year's competition that brought together Hearst Innovation with Adobe Systems to leverage Adobe's "Flash Catalyst" technology. This year's competition returns both Hearst Innovation and Adobe Systems, and welcome's two more exceptional technology partners: Sprint Nextel and Google.
The next event in this year's competition will be the selection of five finalist teams that will spend the winter semester building out real world applications specifically addressing the challenges put forth by Hearst Innovation.
