How about choosing CS 493 during course selection?

Want the chance to invent something and receive course credit?
Want to refine your ideas for your start-up before you graduate?
Want to win prizes?

CS 493/494 are the courses for you!

Projects may range from new software systems, to contribute to existing open-source projects, to research projects. This will all be completed with a team of 3-5 members.

The first prize of $15K has been generously donated by CS alumnus, Sam Pasupalak, and the second prize of $10K has been provided by Microsoft. Prizes will be awarded as part of Demo Day at the end of CS 494.
