[committee] Deloitte Technology Student Opportunities

[Jeremy Cole]

Pretty good schick there... I'd just open the email by mentioning that we are currently in the process of putting together a prospectus to put out into the community.

That way they know there is more to come as well if they are interested.

Deloitte’s networks in the technology industry could expand our pool of potential speakers and promote the events to those we might not normally reach. In exchange we could arrange some form of Deloitte brand presence, be that a banner/visual display, naming rights to the event or similar.

A game is being written by the competition organiser (I believe the game is quantum chess – strategically unpredictable), and entrants will write an artificial intelligence (AI) to play the game autonomously. The matches take place in a tournament style, with points awarded primarily for victories over other AIs. One feature of the competition in past years has been the variety of programming languages used – experienced programmers are encouraged to use languages they have less experience with, developing skills for all involved. In return for a Deloitte brand presence in the competition, Deloitte could perhaps provide sponsorship in the form of prizes for the top competitors.

This is in the early concept stages, but would involve a series of guests who can talk about their experiences in leaving uni and moving into and through the workforce, and what resources were helpful to them in that process.
