ICPC

International Collegiate Programming Contest (ICPC) is one of the biggest algorithmic programming contest for college students. Teams of three work together to solve ~10 programming problems over the course of 3-5 hours in Java, C++, C, or Python.

We host the annual ICPC North America Qualifier (NAQ) to select teams to represent The Ohio State University at ICPC East Central NA Regional Contest (ECNA). Our region has teams from colleges like Carnegie Mellon University, University of Waterloo, University of Michigan, University of Toronto, Purdue University, etc.

Well performing teams have the chance to advance to ICPC North America Championship (NAC) and eventually ICPC World Finals (WF). Our most recent NAC appearance was at NAC 2021 and our most recent WF appearance was at WF 2016.
