Start building the future with Azure

Microsoft has changed their Imagine Program (formerly known as DreamSpark) for computer science, math and engineering students. The new Azure for Students program provides:

  • Credits for cloud-based services including virtual servers, storage, Kubernetes containers, databases, AI and machine learning API's and more
  • Access to software tools such as Visual Studio, SQL Server and the Windows operating system

You must have a current, active Azure for Students subscription in order to access the Software Developer Tools. You can download this software in the Education Hub after you have activated your Azure account.

Learning material can be found in the Azure portal and at Microsoft Learn and lynda.com which are also free for UWindsor students.
