About ITC

The Information Technology Competition is a forum where teams of students from various universities apply their knowledge and skills in information technology to real-world business scenarios. Their work is analyzed, critiqued, and judged by a panel of judges who are professors and industry professionals. In addition, students have the opportunity to win cash prizes, gain contacts in the industry, receive valuable feedback on their work from professionals, and experience working in a business environment that includes competitive pressure, deadlines, and a team-oriented environment.
