For a final capstone project of my major, Information Communication and Technology, I paired with a group of my fellow students and the Program in Interdisciplinary Computing, otherwise known as FSU PIC, to put on their 3rd Annual Digitech Event. This event is basically a showcase where Florida State University Students can show off their technology-related work. And it was the job of myself and my fellow team members to assist in every way possible to make sure the event went on without a hitch.
Pay special attention to the ‘Closing Reception and Awards Ceremony’ portion of the project, because that is what I worked most directly on.

Project Plan:
On Friday, March 28th of 2014 Florida State Program in Interdisciplinary Computing (PIC) will be holding its annual event, Digitech, at the Warren Johnston Building at Florida State University. The event will begin at 11:00am with exhibition promotions and will conclude with an award ceremony from 4:00pm – 5:00pm. The day before the event there will be a Digitech Kick-Off with a panel of professionals and educators for a Q&A section.
With technology emerging all around the world and an increased enrollment in schools involving technology at Florida State University, Digitech is an event for students to get involved and learn about new technology. The event will also host an exhibition for students to display and compete against other students for awards and recognition. The main purpose of the Digitech is to promote the field of technology.
Both the guests who attend Digitech and Florida State University PICs Department would benefit from this event. Florida State Would benefit by sparking the interest in potential students to pursue a degree utilizing technology which will boost the enrollment rate of Technology majors. The guests would benefit by being able to gain insight on the type of work people do with technology as well as have the opportunity to voice their opinion on which exhibit they liked the best by acting as a judge for the contest.
