Position Summary

This recruitment will be used to fill one part-time (a maximum of 24 hours per week) Student Analyst for the Center for Applied Systems and Software (CASS) Development Group at Oregon State University (OSU).

The Center for Applied Systems and Software (CASS) exists as a student internship program. Hourly students are hired and trained, by full time developers or student managers, to perform computer hardware and software testing, and/or development projects. In addition to the technical and development skills students gain, they also learn how to work as a member of a team, gain an appreciation of the importance of deadlines, and other facets of running a business such as planning, budgeting, resource allocation, documentation, and communication.

This position is responsible for reporting to work at scheduled time and reporting to their scheduled CASS manager.

Position Duties

Primary responsibilities for a Student Analyst include documentation development and software testing.

• Testing software for clients requires test case writing, as well as functional testing of new features. You will be working in a development environment.
• Each day, students receive their assignments from the full-time development staff. These assignments are relative to the projects currently being done by the CASS. Students are expected to keep up with these assignments and to be able to finish them in a reasonable amount of time.
