Our project is to solve the communication problem which exist for a long-term and create a table which can improve the social relations between Koç University students.

Koç University seems as a social university, however there exist grouping due to the clubs and organizations in the school. This grouping cause prejudice on people and they become isolated. Most of the student spend their time in the campus, but due to the academic responsibilities, the amount of time that they can spend for the social activities is bounded. We focus on the time that spend in the cafeteria to be able use time efficiently. Thus, we thought that it could also improve limited communication relations between students.

During the research process of this process, we saw that students feel that they don’t feel that they can socialize sufficiently and generally their friends are from the same major with them, they don’t have many friends from other departments. To be able to find a solution to these problems, we considered to create a table for people who want to socialize and eat alone. This table can bring people close together. We named this table as “Eat&Meet”.
