Calling all students interested in coding! There is a new coding competition being added to the Imagine Cup. The Code Hunt Challenge will help you strengthen your programming skills and give you a chance to win cash prizes.
The winner of each month's challenge is the student who produces the best possible answers in the shortest time. The challenge lasts just 48 hours, and the first student to get the highest score will receive a $1000 prize! And every student who participates will be entered into the grand prize drawing.
One student will be chosen at random to win a $5000 prize! The second Code Hunt Challenge begins on October 18th at 12:01 AM (GMT), and ends on October 19th at 11:59 PM (GMT). Go to https://www.imaginecup.com/codehunt to register.

The 2014 Imagine Cup World Champions just spent a week at a customized boot camp at Microsoft Headquarters in Seattle as part of the grand prize. A highlight of the trip was a one-on-one mentoring session with Bill Gates! Team Eyenaemia demonstrated its project, an app that uses a selfie to calculate the risk of anaemia, for Gates, who offered guidance on the project, suggestions on how to move forward, and networking advice. The Cup winners returned to Australia full of ideas and inspiration!
