Cloud Computing student competition and internships
The Australian Academy of Technological Sciences and Engineering is calling for for proposals advocating novel applications of computing clouds answering the questions: how could a cloud platform be used to solve a previously intractable problem or to deliver services in a new and scalable way?
The ICT Centre is supporting a student competition in Cloud Computing from the Australian Academy of Technological Sciences and Engineering.
Entrants should submit proposals advocating novel applications of computing clouds answering the questions: how could a cloud platform be used to solve a previously intractable problem or to deliver services in a new and scalable way? Applications may be from a wide range of endeavours – spanning government, research, education, Internet businesses, and industry.
The selected proposals will be offered a paid summer internship with a member organisation, and provided with supervision, equipment and access to a variety of cloud services.
A remuneration package will consist of $600 per week. Students will give a seminar at the end of their 8-week internship, where a panel will judge the most impressive application and be awarded a $1000 prize.
