@C0D4 I do want to do that regardless, probably in the next four/five years
-
@Elyz I think all I want to do is to create the passageway that initialize the conversation, exactly how to hire students should not be my problem.
-
@C0D4 I’m just hesitant on weather people will use it in the end, plus my set of skill is not a full stack developer(I’m more of hpc guy)
-
@K-ASS build it and they will come.
At least it generally works anyway.
If anything, don't make it specific to a single uni but keep it broad. -
@C0D4 oh of course it will be a general platform, I’m not thinking about taking over all the bureaucracy, I just want to establish a link, a passage to connect those who look for a research
I wanted to build a platform for student who wants to do research and are having hard time finding a good professor within university or from outside, so naturally I started asking professor I knew and this is what I get:
Normally they will only hire students from within university unless student himself has funding, and even with that hiring students from outside is a lot of procedures.
And no, such platform probably won’t be that useful as they get a lot of emails asking about research.
Startup idea instantly killed.
