Gies Groups for iPhone

What the app is

Gies Groups is a no-cost iPhone application created by Novalsys Inc. Designed for students of the Gies College of Business at the University of Illinois, it acts as a centralized online community where members can find college information and stay connected with campus life.

Main capabilities

• Career-focused resources, including job and internship updates and employer outreach tools
• Academic advising information and guidance materials to support course planning
• Department-specific news and announcements from each academic unit
• Dedicated spaces for student organizations with group-specific content and conversations
• Listings and calendars for campus-wide events and activities

Benefits for students

The app makes it straightforward for students to network with classmates and keep informed about what’s happening across the college. Group members get exclusive materials and discussion threads tied to their interests, which helps with collaboration, planning events, and sharing resources. A companion website is also available for broader access to information, useful to both enrolled students and the general public.
