Student Contest
ICSE 2009 in Vancouver will see the first finals of the SCORE Software
Engineering Contest. Teams from all over the world will compete in a
competition that is open to students from undergraduate to master’s
level. Each team will develop a system chosen from a list and monitored
by a committee member. The final deliverable is a report and
accompanying system. Evaluation will be based on the quality of all
aspects of the software engineering process followed, as well as the
outcome.
In order to accommodate all academic calendars, the 2009 SCORE Contest
will run from December 2007 to January 2009 with project selection
ending in November 2008 and project submission starting in February
2008. Up to 10 finalist teams will be announced in April 2009 to attend
ICSE in Vancouver, May 16-24.
The SCORE Contest is aimed at promoting and fostering software
engineering in universities worldwide. The committee consists of members
of industry and academia. Each participating team will benefit from the
experience of one member, and from being part of an exciting new venture.
