Computing Summer Camp 2017 - Byblos

Byblos campus

The Department of Computer Science and Mathematics is organizing its sixth annual computing summer camp.

The camp is a five-day course that aims to give students an appreciation of university-level Computer Science by introducing them to Java programming and mobile development. Participation will be free of charge and will mainly target students in Grades 10 and 11.

Schools are hereby invited to select a maximum of three students to participate in the camp. Selected students are expected to have noticeable interest in Computing (Programming in particular). Due to space restrictions, the camp can only accommodate a limited number of students. Therefore, candidates will be admitted on a first-come first-served basis with the intention of accepting students from as many schools as possible.

The summer camp will culminate in a project with prizes awarded to the top performing students. Candidates will also have the opportunity to secure a scholarship to the Computer Science Program at LAU. If interested, submit your application here as soon as possible.

Please take the following dates into consideration:

Applications submitted online here: June 5, 2017

LAU contacts selected students: June 12, 2017

Confirmation of attendance expected from students: June 16, 2017
