For the past 15 years, William Roussel has been involved with computer programming. Roussel said that he always liked working with computers. He is intrigued when presented with challenges. In the spring semester, Roussel was a student in Professor Brad Yourth\u2019s Java Programming I class, COP 2250. As part of a class assignment, students were required to make an Android application. Upon hearing this, Roussel wanted to create a simple, yet innovative product that would be marketable and compete with existing applications.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think that it\u2019s great that I was able to take what I learned from the college and use that knowledge to create an app on the market,\u201d Roussel said. Currently, he is creating a Camera application that can be used by companies as a branding tool to promote their business. Though the applications are free, Roussel hopes to acquire more experience to produce applications for payment.<\/p>\n
For students who strive to make android applications, Roussel suggests that students look at existing applications to gain a better understanding of what is needed in the industry and recreate something of greater market value.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
