About ICPC
The International Collegiate Programming Contest (ICPC) provides college students with opportunities to interact with students from other universities and to sharpen and demonstrate their problem-solving, programming, and teamwork skills. The contest provides a platform for industry and academia to encourage and focus public attention on the next generation of computing professionals as they pursue excellence.
Introduction
The ICPC is a multi-tiered competition among teams of students representing institutions of higher education. Teams first compete in regional contests held around the world from September to November each year. The top teams from each regional contest qualify to advance to the next tier of the competition, culminating in the ICPC World Finals.
Organization
The ICPC is organized according to the ICPC Policies and Procedures. For each regional contest, the Regional Contest Director (RCD) is charged with executing a regional contest in accordance with the regional rules and ICPC policies, procedures, and guidelines. Regional rules may vary to accommodate differences in educational systems and host computing facilities.
