That's got two problems - first, it's userspace.
Well, it's called userspace, but it does require a significant kernel support.
And second, it's fairly mature software, which means it's not suitable for a student project by itself, and all the low-hanging fruit for improvements has probably already been done (meaning that further extensions will be technically challenging...)
I guess, that someone from the CRIU team might be a better person to tell whether it's the case. It doesn't take a lot of effort to ask whether they have tasks that might become a student project, especially considering that the team doing CRIU did in the past at least collaborate with univeristies in Russia where students actually worked on CRIU.
A better source for project ideas is to do a literature search and find proof-of-concept projects that *didn't* turn into mature software, and need work to turn them into actual running code....
