Sponsorship information:

The 2016 Midwest Instruction and Computing Symposium (MICS) is being hosted by the Computer Science Department of the University of Northern Iowa in Cedar Falls, Iowa on April 22-23, 2016.   MICS is a regional conference dedicated to providing an educational experience to higher education participants across the five-state region of Iowa, Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Wisconsin.   Conference activities include technical paper sessions, programming and robotics contests, a keynote address, and a career fair for student participants.  

Typically, the conference draws about 200-250 participants which include a large number of undergraduate students enrolled in computing-related disciplines.  The students are some of the best and brightest in the five state region.  Most are actively working on collaborative research projects and many participate in the conference’s programming and robotics contests. 
We are seeking sponsors who are interested in supporting the conference to publicize their organizations  and/or to recruit these excellent students for internships or full-time employment at the conference’s career fair.   The MICS 2016 career fair will be held on Friday, April 22 from 12:30-4:00 p.m.
