From Academic Enrichment Coordinator, Stephanie Boyce,
The National Computer Science School (NCSS) is a ten-day summer school for students going into Years 11 and 12. NCSS brings together talented young people from around Australia for an intensive course in computer programming and website development at university.
NCSS 2020 will run from Friday 3rd to Sunday 12th January 2020 (inclusive), and we are planning nodes at the University of Sydney and the University of Melbourne. NCSS has been offered in various formats since 1996 when it was initiated by the University’s Foundation for Information Technology. In 2015, we celebrated 20 years of the program. NCSS is organised by the Australian Computing Academy at the University of Sydney. The school is completely residential, with all students staying with NCSS staff in full-board accommodation provided on campus.
The cost of NCSS is heavily subsidised by our sponsors, allowing them to make the cost per student $500 in 2020.
