The scholarship offers the winner a paid six month internship with Datacom working in the Microsoft/Azure team in the Datacom Auckland office.
The Imagine Cup and Microsoft Imagine Cup events are important initiatives that help to promote ICT as a vibrant career path for young New Zealanders. At Datacom we believe it’s important to celebrate the world-class software designers coming out of the New Zealand tertiary institutions and our scholarship recognises this talent.
The paid scholarship is a significant opportunity for a student to put their theoretical learning into practice in real-world situations. From day one they’ll be right in at the deep end of designing, building and delivering software solutions as part of a team. This is a chance to spend time in a leading company and work on real projects.
If you have participated in the 2017 Microsoft Imagine Cup or the Microsoft Student Accelerator programme for 2016/2017, then we are keen to see your application.
