The contest follows the format and rules of the ACM Regional Intercollegiate Programming Competitions (see http://icpc.baylor.edu). Sample problems can be found at that site. Each team of three students will attempt to solve six programming problems within three hours. 

Registration fee: $25 per team. There will be special training and information sessions for the coaches during the competition.

View the Contest Rules and Environment

There are two competition Divisions: Division A (advanced) and Division B (intermediate). Both divisions use the same problem set. This year, due to room space limitations, we can register a maximum of 25 teams. In order to include as many schools as possible, we will allow each school to register a maximum of 2 teams during the regular registration period (12/1/2008 to 2/15/2009). Schools who wish to enter a third team can register on a waiting list via email to irvinek@cs.fiu.edu. Coaches, in the interest of fairness, we ask you not to wait list a third team until you know the names of all team members.

Trophies will be given for First, Second, and Third place in each division.  Each student on a winning team will receive an engraved medal. Assuming that we receive corporate sponsorship, we will also give each team member a participation certificate and supply lunch for competitors. Teams are responsible for their own transportation to and from the event.
