The ANU TechLauncher teams are in the third year or later, including

The projects range from helping collect the requirements and build a
prototype including selecting the tools and methods, to working on
already developed requirements. The customer can be an individual who
knows nothing about computers, up to a major software company with
strict procedures. One team I tutored were building a biometric feedback
system for a psychologist treating people with a fear of flying. Another
was a engineering company needing to simulate a new processor for
military radar.
The students have already done years on tools and techniques, so the
emphasis here is on teamwork and communication skills: can they produce
something useful, soundly designed, which the customer is happy with?
There is an overview at:

Shayne Flint and others who developed the program, wrote a paper about
it: https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/7942964
Here is a later paper on my bit out it:
