Well its difficult to give a list of potential projects since it depends on what you are interested in. A good place to start might be looking for open source projects which are often looking for talented people like you to contribute. Another place you could look is a popular computer science message board here in Canada: http://www.compsci.ca (often the people on this site have great ideas for projects or are looking for collaborations). One way I usually come up with projects is by reading as much as I can about areas in Computing that interest me. Often you will come up with ideas on extending existing work to include more functionality or new features, or you will just have new ideas altogether. Always try to imagine how you could make things better or how you could use your knowledge in computers make something easier for people.

I did a similar project in my undergrad where the entire class was involved in some way. We implemented an emulation tool for the m68k processor with emphasis on the life cycle of software.

As for ideas for you, I suppose it would depend on your team size, you could do some kind of online store system, a warehouse inventory control system, or something larger like our class did. A good place to ask for some ideas might be the forums at compsci.ca. Often people ask similar questions in there and the users are generally really helpful.

Anyway, I’ve got to do a project with a group in class over anything really..we’re learning about the life cycle of software(Design phase,Analysis phase, Implementation phase, etc.). I was wondering if you had any good idea’s for any type of software projects that could be done.
