Microsoft seeks applicants from UMBC students for a position as their technology representative at UMBC for the 2007-08 academic year. This is a paid position with a commitment of 6-8 hours a week. See the 2007-08 Microsoft Student Partners Program flyer for more information.

“The Student Partners Program is an elite job opportunity offered to technology-enthusiastic students. Individuals that take part in this Microsoft student representative program understand and are passionate about Microsoft technologies and platforms. Traditionally these representatives major in Computer Science, Computer Information Systems, and Information Technology, but all majors are welcome to apply. Participating students share their knowledge and influence others by organizing a number of on-campus activities including technical presentations, and by increasing product awareness on campus. During the one-year commitment students will help plan, organize and execute launch events, tech-talks and other activities. Student Partners will become the voice of Microsoft on campus; they will be expected to interact with their peers as well as faculty and assist students with use of Microsoft technologies. Time commitment ranges from 6-8 hours/week from September 1st through May 31st (school breaks excluded).The program provides the student with all the tools, materials, and support needed to be successful.”

Students must be registered at UMBC but no specific major or degree program is required. Preference will be given to sophomores and juniors, and members of campus or online user groups. Students must have valid identification and be eligible to work in the US for Volt Group Services from 1 September 2007 through 31 May 2008.
