Dine Out

Describe the problem your solution addresses? (150 word limit)

Due to COVID-19, many schools have adopted guidelines concerning social distancing. Among all, one of the largest difficulties for students staying on campus is dining. Traditionally, students would have to wait in line and eat in crowded spaces, which creates a high risk for infections. Besides, there is usually no organized database with the different university eateries and the foods they offer. Individuals with food constraints may need to look at food options in more detail.

Why did you pick this solution and how does it address the problem? (150 word limit)

We chose the solution because it makes the process of ordering food on a college campus convenient and efficient while following social distancing guidelines. Our App, Dine Out, displays the different campus eateries with their menu options, allowing students to choose a meal, pay through the app, and receive a specific pick up location. If the university is using reusable containers, the app will help the student locate the nearest station to drop off containers for cleaning and reusing purposes. Overall it’s a solution that makes dining safer, more convenient, and more eco-friendly.
