Student Project Contest

The University of Tartu Institute of Computer Science announces a contest for IT-related student projects.

The project submitted has to be in the field of IT. It can be practical or theoretical research or implementation project. It may be associated with any course or be a completely new and personal initiative—for example, a project from a course, educational resource, public software, a start-up idea, etc.

Participation

Participation is open to undergraduate (BSc) and graduate (MSc) students of the University of Tartu, regardless of the curriculum, in teams of one or up to five. A project can have one supervisor.

Projects will be evaluated in three categories:

  • Bachelor's level
  • Master's level

In the Bachelor’s and Master’s categories, at least ⅔ of the authors (except the supervisor) have to be students of the appropriate level. If there are two members in the team, ½ of the authors must be students of the appropriate level. In the first-year Bachelor’s category, all authors must be first-year Bachelor's students.
