Risks

  • Ensuring Degree Navigator Works on Mobile

▪ The application must be easy to understand and navigate ▪ Mitigation: Continue to refine the UI through multiple iterations of user feedback ▪ Importance: Very High, Difficulty: High

  • Handling Edge Cases

▪ The app needs additional features for students with dual majors, minors, and honors options ▪ Mitigation: Implemented edge case functionality in the early design stages ▪ Importance: High, Difficulty: Moderate

  • Coordinating with Existing MSU Systems

▪ The app should store user information similarly to how other MSU technologies do ▪ Mitigation: Maintain frequent communication with our clients about mock data and our schemas. ▪ Importance: Low, Difficulty: Moderate
