College Programming Contests

We have also hosted many College level programming contests inviting colleges nearby to participate. Several students have worked with Dr. Geisler and Dr. Brandle to develop software for running the contest. This software includes an online submission system and an autograder for nearly instant feedback.

High School Programming Contests

We have hosted, with the help of COSClub, battlebot programming contests for nearby high schools. These contests have been a big success with the participants really getting into it and having fun building their bots.
