IUH joins ICPC International Student Programming Organization 2022 14-11-2022

ICPC international student programming is a world-class programming contest, held annually in countries and continents to select the team to participate in the global competition - World Final. Although IUH has only participated in these contests since 2011, quite late compared to Vietnam's 17-year history, IUH has quickly risen, to reach the top 10 schools with the best performance in the last 3 years and ranked among the strongest schools in this challenging student playground.

With the high trust of the Vietnam Informatics Association, IUH has been selected as one of the 16 national ICPC test sites in 2022 from 11 to 13 November to select the best teams to represent Vietnam in the Asia regional round to take place in December 2022. With a modern practice room system, and computer labs equipped with high-speed Internet, IUH has facilities that best meet the technical requirements of the contest.

Previously, the teams had to go through 3 qualifiers in the North - Central - South region, and 377 teams qualified for the ICPC National International Student Programming Competition 2022. IUH test site (site 8) gathered 32 teams (96 students) from Industrial University of Ho Chi Minh City (15 teams), Thu Dau Mot University (5 teams), Giao Thong Van Tai University in HCM (3 teams), Binh Long - Binh Phuoc Specialized High School (2 teams), Huynh Man Dat High School - Kien Giang (1 team), Luong The Vinh – Dong Nai High School (5 teams) and Gia Dinh – Ho Chi Minh High School (1 team).

After 5 hours of stress, the teams competed hard to solve more problems on the computer, to gain chances of going to the next round. IUH's goal this year is to win 5 slots out of the 100 best teams in Vietnam to come to the Asian arena.
