University of Texas at El Paso is a Social Business!
At the University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP), faculty and researchers are using Social Business to track the status of research projects and help facilitate knowledge sharing across campus.
This social business model provides a cost-effective, easy-to-use solution that allows faculty and researchers to share resources and track progress of research projects without clogging up their email in-boxes while aiding in the ever challenging "version control" process for collaborative documents. UTEP has recently expanded its use of Social Business to collaborate with universities across North America who are involved in CASHI, the Computing Alliance of Hispanic-Serving Institutions.
CASHI aims to increase the number of Hispanic students who pursue and complete baccalaureate and advanced degrees in the computer and information sciences and engineering. UTEP uses Social Business to collaborate with faculty at other universities, invite users from the other universities at no cost as guests to work on projects together. They can collaborate, manage projects, assign work, and comment directly with each other!
