***ACM India Winter Schools 2024 Announcement: Deadline Extended to 28 October***
We are back with "ACM India Winter Schools 2024." ACM India schools offer self-motivated students in-depth knowledge and exposure to research in current, advanced technology areas. Each school in this stellar lineup covers academic and applied research in the technology topic and is taught by the best-in-class experts from academia and industry.
Applying for the Winter Schools
The application fee for this school program is Rs 150 + 18% GST; you can give first and second preference in the application form. All payments are non-refundable. We request you to apply after careful consideration since the demand is high and the seats are limited to 40 per school.
And last but not least, as usual, one school is reserved for women students. This time it is on "Algorithms for Big Data and Machine Learning" at Dhirubhai Ambani Institute of Information and Communication Technology (DA-IICT), Gandhinagar.

Selection & Registration
Selection: ACM India will select the students based on the data provided. Selected students will be informed via email.
Registration: Only the selected students will be required to pay non-refundable school fees, no more than INR 2500 + 18% GST. A payment link will be provided only to the selected students. Please note that once selected to a school you cannot change to another school. Also note that if selected, you should pay and register, to be fair to those who could not get in. So choose responsibly.
Each day comprises lectures as well as tutorial sessions with hands-on problem-solving experience. The industry partnership can expose you to the career options in the area covered by the school; some schools may organise sessions dedicated to this.
Top performing students in these schools may earn opportunities for internship in industry and will be invited to an all-expense-paid trip to the ACM India ARCS Symposium and ACM India Annual Event 2025 at PSG Tech, Coimbatore in February-March 2025.
Please feel free to circulate this message in your academic institution and fellow student network.

ACM India Schools Committee
