Engage in Exciting Problems
The CS@Mines High School Programming Competition is a competition for high school students to write programs that solve problems.
We model our programming competition off well-known college-level competitions such as ICPC, but bring an inviting set of problems to the table suitable for high school students.
The 2023 competition will include four available tracks in the form of both in-person and virtual competitions, which compete at the same day and time. Both competitions are offered in two levels of difficulty: Beginner, for students with basic computing experience and advanced, for students with significant computing experience.
Registration will open in the beginning of March.
