Melbourne Bootstrap IQP

Hello and welcome to the Melbourne Bootstrap IQP Website.

The goal of the Melbourne Bootstrap was the establishment of a strong foundation for a new WPI Project Center in the city of Melbourne, Australia.  Our project team spent the whole of C-term in Melbourne in order to examine the issues that will be important for future teams of students to live and work within Australia.  Further, we developed working relationships with agencies and companies who were interested in participating as IQP sponsors. Our research on location in Australia involved examining factors such as housing accommodations, access to resources necessary for conducting everyday business, health care issues, legal issues, and also the discovery of cultural factors that could confront WPI students. 

For the benefit of the students, advisors, and relevant agencies involved, this website was constructed to facilitate a familiarity with the project at hand. The structure of this website was designed to follow, as closely as possible, the final report submitted to our advisors.
