Overview
One of the most important features of our camps is to teach students with hands-on experience — in-class guided code writing.
AlphaStar Winter Computer Science Camp is a unique opportunity for interested and talented students to improve their Computer Science skills during winter break, where students are guided and trained by expert faculty via utilizing national and international competitions in a fun and challenging environment.
