Microsoft kicks off the app challenge at UMBC

Do you want to build a killer Windows8 application? Then head to the Microsoft Win8 App Challenge kickoff tomorrow, Friday September 14, 2012 in ITE 459 from 12-1 p.m.

At this information session, you'll learn more about Microsoft's Win8 App Challenge and how from now until October 26th, you can submit up to three Windows 8 applications for a chance to win a $25 gift certificate. Students are required to work with a Microsoft Student Partner () to envision, build, and submit an app to the Windows store. All majors are welcome. All that's required is an interest in learning to make apps on your own or in a team.
