Hello,
Cogapp has launched a new monthly coding competition for students in the
Sussex area. If you are (or know) any students who may be interested
please forward this onto them - cash prizes await! Details below:
"Cogapp has launched a new coding competition for students in the Sussex
area. Called 'Codeo', it will see monthly challenges for those studying,
or interested in, coding, programming and web or game design. A cash
prize of £100 will be awarded to the winning individual or group
submission, following an internal judging process at the end of each
month. The winner will also be invited to our Brighton office to meet
our team, and will have their work displayed on our blog (they will, of
course, remain the full owner of their code or intellectual property).
The competition is a chance to strengthen ties between local industry
and the universities. Course tutors will be telling students about the
challenges, and may later help Cogapp select tasks that tie in with
course modules. In time, Codeo may become a useful learning resource and
networking space, as participants begin to compare and exchange tips and
ideas.
It is hoped the competition will encourage students to try new ideas and
develop their skills, contributing in the longer term to the development
of digital media in Brighton."
