 +====== Student Projects ======
 +Within our ongoing research work on MINIX 3, we frequently have open subproblems that can be assigned to computer science students as term project (**MSc** or **BSc**), individual programming assignment (**IPA**), or operating system lab course replacement. A list of open projects can be found on this page.  If you're interested in any of the listed projects, please send an e-mail to the owner of the project to make an appointment. ​ The list below is just intended to give you an idea about the kind of projects we would be interested in. It is possible to propose your own projects. Just let any of us know that you are interested in doing a MINIX 3 project and we will work out the details.
