Campus Web Solutions (CWS) is a team of student co‑ops and full‑time mentors within Auburn University’s Application Development Team. We design, build, and maintain web and mobile applications that serve thousands of students, faculty, and staff every day. From cloud migrations to COVID‑19 response tools, we turn ideas into impact.
🎓 where students become developers
CWS isn’t just a campus job—it’s a launchpad. Co‑ops work on production‑grade applications, collaborate with full‑time mentors, and ship code that matters. They’ve migrated apps to Azure Cloud, redesigned major college websites, and built tools that directly supported Auburn during the pandemic.

At the same time, we deliver enterprise‑grade tools that keep Auburn running—proving that students can do professional‑level work.
