UTML is a webapp used in various courses at the UT to create UML diagrams. It was created as a design project five years ago, and it was our task to bring the app up-to-date and improve some of its shortcomings. To accomplish this, we built the app from scratch based on Vue.js and the DGM.js library. We also performed user testing to make sure the design is intuitive.
The CS Design Project module is one of the two final modules of the Bachelor. In the design component of this module, students show that they master the entire design trajectory, from the first informal specification of requirements by a client to the delivery and presentation of a well-documented working product. Projects are submitted by clients from either inside or outside the University. Students perform the project in groups of 3-5 students under the supervision of a teacher from the Department of Computer Science. The supervisor is also the one who assesses the process and products of the group. Project deliverables include a project proposal, a design report, a presentation and a poster.
