The SJSU Honors program has provided IHS/ESP with a highly effective
means of extending our product development into new areas. The

The Honors Program MIS team I worked with listened and sought to
understand our issues and goals. They considered what was in place today
and how we got there. The team then looked beyond the reality and
considered what was possible. They took that possibility and developed
it into an idea and ultimately into an ideal solution that will have an
immediate impact on our efficiencies and productivity.
My experience with the Honors Program has been exceptional, the students
and professor have been wonderful to work with. The success of each of
the projects will add to the growing reputation of the program and its
achievements. These are some of the best young minds working on
solutions to real working world issues with some of the latest
technologies and approaches.

Great experience! Great work product!
The students showed great professionalism, worked well as a team, showed
great initiative, and intuitiveness to ask questions that lead to a
greater work project. These students were able to take thoughts and
ideas and develop a workable solution with minimal direction.

For several years we have been considering
developing a tool that would allow our clients to provide immediate
feedback to us regarding the services we provide. We believe this is a
critical component of not only improving our service, but empowering our
clients to maintain greater control of their own health. The project
undertaken by these students is now allowing us to implement this
important service.

Working with the SJSU Honors Students on a
collaborative project was a delightful process. We were amazed at the
talents that these good young people brought to the project and their
ability to learn new techniques and skills to accomplish the tasks. The
result of their efforts is an urban forestry website that we are very
proud of, and is a project that, if contracted out, would have likely
been far more expensive and difficult to achieve the high level of
quality that these students accomplished.
