Team up to solve an engineering problem from Google.
Are you up for the challenge?
University of Bergen and GDG Bergen will again host a hub for the Google Hash Code Qualification Round on the late evening of Thursday February 28, 2019. There will be free food for students, balloons, goodies from Google and a unique opportunity to solve a near real-world algorithmic problem under immense time pressure. Teams of size 2-4.
Check out last year's contest (pics/summary in Norwegian), or visit the official site to learn about the rules and access previous years' problem sets.
The contest is open to everyone, even if you are not affiliated with the University of Bergen. If you do not have keys to Høyteknologisenteret, please call your host Torstein upon arrival at 92652405.
Location: Faklab 3, Høyteknologisenteret, University of Bergen (map)
Date and time: Thursday February 28, 18:30 - 22:30.
Doors open 17:30, live stream starts 18:00, and the prize ceremony ends no later than 23:00.
Registration deadline: February 1
Late registration (no free food/goodies/prizes): February 27
Deadline: Febrary 1 (late registration until February 27)
Even if you have not finalized a team yet, please start registration super early and create a dummy team that you register to the University of Bergen hub. This is such that we may receive enough goodies from Google.
It is better to register now and withdraw later, than not registering now but later wishing you had.
