GUtech Campus in Muscat, Oman

The campus is a first-of-its-kind project, and establishes Omani architecture at an international level.

The boot camp in Oman will be available to teams of different skill levels – separated by two divisions of difficulty:

• Division A. Designed to prepare students to excel and win medals in the next ICPC World Finals.
• Division B. Designed to help teams prepare for the next season of ICPC Regionals and international competitions. This is an appropriate introduction for teams and students without extensive experience in the world of ICPC and competitive programming competitions in general. The Division B curriculum features thematic lectures and contests.

The participation fee is unchanged: €1270 per person (cultural programme, accommodation and half-board meals included). Single participants and teams must register before 15 December to receive the 15% off Early Bird Discount, or the 20% off Loyalty Discount, which is awarded to teams that participated in previous Hello Programming Bootcamps or Moscow Workshops ICPC Bootcamps.

The final registration deadline is February 25, 2019.
