1 – Send us a proposal for a competition topic that you think would be interesting for our community. It can even be your scheduled course assignment.


2 – We will analyse your proposal and see if it fits our profile and will reply to you within 1–2 weeks.


3 – In case of a positive answer, we will prepare, schedule, and then launch the competition.


4 – You will have 10 free registrations for your students to enter the competition.


5 – Once the competition results are published, your university will be awarded 50 points for submitting a competition topic.
