International teams from the MIS master degree program at the
University of Arizona have been
invaluable to us in our creation of an accessible, interactive and
talking campus website platform. AudioEye has enabled instant

are selecting their IT or MIS destination and investment. Using our
technology the entire MIS website can be read to prospective
students in their native language, engaging them in a conversation
about their future, while leveraging state-of-the-art technology."
