MacPaw Concludes Successful Internship Program in Collaboration with MIT-Ukraine
In response to Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine , MIT has launched the MIT-Ukraine program to serve as a hub for its technological and humanitarian efforts. This program engages MIT students, faculty, and staff in global efforts to preserve and rebuild Ukraine . One of the program's key components is the MIT International Science and Technology Initiatives (MISTI) internships, which enable MIT talent to work on hands-on projects supporting Ukraine .
This program collaboration provided two MIT students with the unique opportunity to work closely with MacPaw's technological research and development team, which specializes in transforming research ideas into practical applications.
The interns focused on identifying the most effective methods for highlighting important software updates for users, including the possibility of automating the update process. Over just 2.5 months, they conducted extensive research, chose the optimal approach, and organized data and ML models to enhance the update process. Their efforts show great improvement in how MacPaw manages software updates.
