Student Software Projects
Student software projects from the Deakin Software Engineering Club
Real software engineering projects built by Deakin students at the Melbourne Burwood campus, with links to the GitHub repos behind the code.
This page showcases projects created by members of the Deakin Software Engineering Club (DSEC). Every project started as an idea in a workshop, hackathon, development session, or late night Discord chat. Here you can see what Deakin students are building, what technologies they use, and how they collaborate in real software teams.
Whether you are a first year student looking for inspiration, a current member choosing your next team, or a recruiter curious about what Deakin students can actually ship, this is the best place to start.
Explore DSEC Projects
These projects are built by Deakin students from software engineering, computer science, IT, and related courses. Most were created in small teams during DSEC development sessions, hackathons, or self directed sprints. Each card links out to a GitHub repository so you can inspect the code, see open issues, and explore how the team works.

DSEC Project Hub
Track club projects and contributors in one place.
A web app for DSEC that lists club projects, contributors, and tech stacks in one dashboard. Built to make it easier for new members to find a team, and for execs to see which projects are active during each trimester.
StudyBuddy Schedule
Simple timetable generator for Deakin students.
A small web tool that helps Deakin students combine their Uni timetable with club events and study blocks. Created during a DSEC coding night and refined in development sessions.
O-Fest Stall Tracker
Track sign ups and interest at O-Fest.
An internal tool used by DSEC to record sign ups, interest levels, and follow up actions at Deakin O-Fest stalls and T-stalls. Helps the club understand which events and messages attract more members.
CodeReview Bot
AI-powered code review assistant for student projects.
A Discord bot that provides automated code review suggestions for pull requests in DSEC project repositories. Uses OpenAI to analyze code and provide constructive feedback to help students learn best practices.
Campus Nav AR
AR navigation for Deakin Burwood campus.
An experimental mobile app that uses augmented reality to help new students navigate the Burwood campus. Point your phone and see directions overlaid on the real world.
DSEC Analytics Dashboard
Visualize club engagement and growth metrics.
A data visualization dashboard that helps the exec team track membership growth, event attendance, and project participation over time. Built to support data-driven decisions for the club.
How to Read These Projects
What these projects say about our members
These projects are not assignments or group reports. They are things Deakin students chose to build in their own time, with the support of the Deakin Software Engineering Club and DUSA. When you browse this page, look for:
The skills used
Languages, frameworks, tools — see what technologies students are choosing to learn and apply
The way teams use GitHub
Branches, issues, pull requests, documentation — how students collaborate and ship code
The kinds of problems students are solving
Club needs, student life, learning tools, experiments — real problems, real solutions
If you are a student
Use this page as inspiration. You do not need a perfect idea or a big team to start. Many projects here began as simple experiments and grew over time. The best way to learn is to build something real, even if it is small.
If you are a recruiter or partner
Treat this as a window into how Deakin students approach software engineering. You can see what technologies they self select, how they collaborate, and how they document and ship code. For deeper case studies, contact the project contributors or ask about them at a DSEC event.

For Deakin Students
If you are a Deakin student who wants to see your own project on this page, the best way to start is by joining a DSEC development session or hackathon. You do not need to be an expert. We welcome beginners and experienced students who want to learn by building together, improving their problem solving skills, and growing their software portfolios.
For Partners & Companies
If you are a company, startup, or team and you have an idea for a student friendly project brief, reach out. We can work with you to design sponsored challenges, hackathons, or long running projects that give Deakin students real experience while solving real problems.
