Scholarship for Women to Serious Games Summit
Microsoft Research Offering Serious Game Summit Scholarship
Note: I have not confirmed, but previously these Microsoft Research Scholarships have been open to Interactive Media MFA students as well. If you are intersted, follow the link to find out who to email regarding further information.
Microsoft Research is seeking 10 female computer science students currently involved in serious game development and research to send to this October's Serious Game Summit in Washington DC.
The selected team of "Microsoft Female Academic All-Stars" will be rewarded with a sponsored trip to the Summit (run by the CMP Game Group, as is Gamasutra.com) to attend its sessions, lectures, and roundtable discussions.
They will also have a chance to convene for an exclusive lunch to meet a yet unannounced industry executive to "discuss the issues surrounding female game developers and to learn about career opportunities in the field."
