About
We are a special interest group for the International Collegiate Programming Contest (ICPC) that runs under the Association of Computing Machinery chapter in the University of Urbana Champaign.The ICPC is an algorithmic programming contest for college students. It is the oldest, largest, and most prestigious programming contest in the world. More than 50,000 students participate in three-person teams representing more than 3,000 universities.
Here we foster a friendly environment for students to practice and train for not only ICPC, but also to improve their programming and problem solving skills. These skills prove to be beneficial in technical courses, programming interviews, and real life applications.
Meetings
Help I’m currently at an icpc meeting and I don’t know how to get started
SIG-ICPC welcomes everyone! You do not need to be a certain skill level to attend any meeting!
Thursday meetings are more beginner-friendly practice sessions that cover general topics that are common in technical interviews.
Saturday meetings are more rigourous and cover more complicated algorithms seen in ICPC and other related competitions. Anyone interested in ICPC is highly encouraged to attend Saturday meetings!
There are snacks at food during every meeting (unless said otherwise)!
Please join our Discord for location and times!
