A new chapter for the Microsoft Student Ambassadors program, built for you
Join the reimagined Student Ambassadors program to learn and lead. Experiment with AI, drive projects that solve real problems, and earn recognition for the impact you make. For more than two decades, the Microsoft Student Ambassadors program has helped student-developers from around the world build practical technical and leadership skills—skills that have helped open doors for hundreds of thousands of students, sparked their confidence, and turned curiosity into careers. Today, we’re announcing an exciting new chapter for the program, shaped by the evolving needs of students everywhere who are preparing for careers that demand not only technical fluency but also adaptable, broad-based skills. We’re reimagining Microsoft Student Ambassadors to welcome students from all disciplines, across higher-education campuses worldwide (restrictions apply). The future of work—and the future of AI—won’t be shaped by one type of learner, one major, or one path. It will be shaped by people who are curious about AI, motivated to learn by doing, and ready to help others with their learning. That’s why we’re expanding the program beyond its developer roots, making it a place and opportunity for all students. By joining the Student Ambassadors program, you can learn to lead with AI in creative and responsible ways, so you can think bigger, build faster, and bring bold ideas to life. You will have the opportunity to grow your skills faster by learning alongside a community that challenges and supports you at every step, where friendships spark creativity and mentorship builds confidence. Along the way, you can turn potential into proof, building a résumé that reflects your strengths and contributions and shows that you’re not just ready for what’s next—you’re already doing it. There’s no application required to join. No gatekeeping. Just a shared commitment to building your skills and helping others to build theirs. How to join the Student Ambassadors program Go to Student Ambassadors, and select Get Started. Take a few minutes to complete the sign-up steps (no application or interview.) Participate in activities aligned to your interests and skills—from creating and sharing social content that helps to upskill others, to hosting events and contributing to the community. Hit milestones to unlock benefits and build experience, whether you’re focused on your career path or a startup idea. What it means to be a Student Ambassador As a Student Ambassador, you have an array of benefits to support your development while you upskill and support others across your campus and online community. After your onboarding to the program, you gain access to cutting-edge Microsoft technologies, including Microsoft 365 Copilot, Visual Studio Enterprise, and $150 in monthly Azure credits. As you progress through the program and unlock milestones, you earn opportunities for leadership positions and deeper engagement with Microsoft. Through our new immersive, rotational work with Microsoft teams, you can contribute to real initiatives while gaining experience that builds practical skills, industry awareness, and results to showcase on your résumé and LinkedIn profile. These short, focused engagements give Student Ambassadors direct exposure to the teams shaping Microsoft technologies. Through product updates, open discussions, and feedback opportunities, you can learn how we build, prioritize, and evolve products, and you can develop the professional skills required in today’s workplace. As a result, Student Ambassadors learn to navigate professional environments, engage in meaningful conversations, and develop a clear point of view on emerging technologies and industry trends. With this foundation, you can be prepared to show up as a credible voice in both technical and nontechnical communities, while building confidence for future career opportunities. What’s next In the coming months, we’ll continue to write new chapters for the program, including the launch of Microsoft Campus Clubs and the Microsoft Student Ambassadors Alumni Network. These initiatives will open doors for even more people to participate in the Microsoft Student Ambassadors program and to connect with Microsoft communities. The future needs people who are ready to get involved. Get started with Microsoft Student Ambassadors.
Microsoft Mesh Education Licensing
Microsoft Education and Product Teams, I am writing to advocate for the inclusion of Microsoft Mesh (Immersive Spaces and Events) within the Microsoft 365 Education SKU family (A1, A3, and A5). Currently, Mesh is available across nearly every commercial license family, from Teams Essentials to E5 Enterprise, but is explicitly excluded from Education tenants. As documented in several Learn Q&A threads and service plan manifests, the MESH_IMMERSIVE_FOR_TEAMS service plan is simply not provisioned for EDU customers. The current state is one of silent exclusion, creating several critical hurdles: Pedagogical: Immersive technology is one of the most requested features for remote and hybrid learning to combat "Zoom fatigue" and increase student engagement. Education is a high-value use case for 3D immersion. Parity: Universities and K-12 institutions on A5 licenses pay for "top-tier" features but are denied the innovative tools available to a "Business Basic" user. If you are a small business on a basic plan, you have Mesh. If you are a world-class University on A5, you are blocked. This isn't a "procurable" add-on; it is a licensing eligibility wall. Implementation: Current Microsoft guidance suggests schools move to Business or Enterprise licensing to access Mesh. This is not a viable solution for institutions with thousands of users, complex compliance requirements, and student-data privacy frameworks built specifically around EDU SKUs. We aren’t asking for a discount; we are asking for eligibility. We urge the product team to: Add the Mesh Immersive service plan to the A3 and A5 EDU license entitlements. Provide a clear roadmap for when Education tenants can expect feature parity with Commercial tenants. Education should be the vanguard of immersive collaboration, not an afterthought. We would appreciate a formal update on when this licensing barrier will be removed.
Introduction to the Data Science Process
We are excited to collaborate with Club for the Future and introduce your students to the data science process. In this free and interactive Excel based curriculum, students use data and a step-by-step data science process to simulate the decision-making process that data scientists in a command center use to give a Go/No-Go signal for a rocket launch.Getting started with low code software development whilst still in education

Create Education Assignment returns “20132” error using microsoft graph api at c#
I want to create a specific class of assignments. At Graph Explorer, https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/education/classes/{classId}/assignments This request works well. But in my C# code, var assignInfo = new EducationAssignment { DisplayName = "test", DueDateTime = DateTimeOffset.Parse("2020-09-20T18:00:00Z"), Instructions = new EducationItemBody { ContentType = BodyType.Html, Content = "hi" }, Status = EducationAssignmentStatus.Draft, AllowStudentsToAddResourcesToSubmission = true, AssignTo = new EducationAssignmentClassRecipient { }, Grading = new EducationAssignmentPointsGradeType() { MaxPoints = 100 }, CreatedDateTime = DateTimeOffset.Parse("2020-09-20T12:00:00Z"), AssignDateTime = DateTimeOffset.Parse("2020-09-20T13:00:00Z"), AssignedDateTime = DateTimeOffset.Parse("2020-09-20T13:00:00Z"), CloseDateTime = null, AllowLateSubmissions = true }; await graphClient.Education.Classes[pClassId].Assignments .Request() .AddAsync(assignInfo); It occured error: {"Code: 20132\r\nMessage: The content of the request is invalid. Common causes are an invalid Content-Type header or no content in the body.\r\nInner error:\r\n\tAdditionalData:\r\n\tdate: 2020-09-20T07:25:14\r\n\trequest-id: d2181119-9116-4f1d-9ed4-d007e2e406d0\r\n\tclient-request-id: d2181119-9116-4f1d-9ed4-d007e2e406d0\r\nClientRequestId: d2181119-9116-4f1d-9ed4-d007e2e406d0\r\n"} Why is this happening? I've been thinking and trying all day. I tried await graphClient.Education.Classes[pClassId].Assignments .Request() .Header("Content-Type", "application/json") .AddAsync(assignInfo); But there was the same error. If only the displayname element was requested, the results were the same. The Permissions has been dealt with. EduAssignments.ReadWriteBasic, EduAssignments.ReadWrite.. etc And the dll(NuGet pakage) is also prepared in beta version. I referred to https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/educationclass-post-assignments?view=graph-rest-beta I'm desperate for help.. Thanks.
