They built a terminal based journal system called Termbook that prompts whenever you run the terminal. Here is the Devpost if you want to dive deeper into the technology we used to make it and watch our video demo: https://devpost.com/software/termbook

There was a great turnout of Salisbury University computer science students besides the students in the above team.

Our computer science students have demonstrated again and again that they are extremely competitive among students from other schools. There is no doubt that they are well-prepared to take on any real-world challenges when the graduate!

Stephora Cesar-Alberi (Junior, Computer Science), and Andersen Herman (Junior, Chemistry, Honors) presented their IRB-approved road safety survey data to the Salisbury's City Council. This community research was conducted in collaboration with the City of Salisbury’s Department of Transportation on behalf of Vision Zero to research road safety on the west side of Salisbury. Ryan Weaver (PACE, Interdisciplinary Studies), Presidential Citizen Scholars LaMaree James (Senior, Environmental Studies) are the project directors.

Computer Science major Alex Mekovsky will present his 2023 NSF REU EXERCISE project at 116th Annual Meeting of the National Shellfisheries Association taking place between March 17 and March 21. The title of his project is “Machine Learning and Computer Vision Techniques to Identify and Monitor Ostreidae Nondisruptively”. Dr. Enyue (Annie) Lu is his research mentor. Alex worked on the project along with two other REU students.
