Congratulations to all of the new graduates of the New Media Institute Certificate Program! SLAM was a huge success, and everyone at the NMI want to give a special thanks to everyone who attended and made this SLAM the best one yet!

The capstone students knocked their presentations out of the park with their inventive apps for organizations like AthFest, WOW Bootcamp, and Stadion Classic. They also had some innovative apps that would help take on important health issues like smoking, obesity, and drinking and driving.

The graduate students of Big Data also gave companies like Pandora, WEbMD, CNN.com, and The Weather Channel ways to use Facebook Open Graph in applications that would help companies understand their audiences better.

Representatives from over 40 different companies were in attendance for NMI’s big ideas and big projects, making this SLAM one with the largest company presence to date. Thanks again to the students for all the hard work, May’s capstone students have big shoes to fill!
