MIPS | Malaysian Informatics And Programming Society

The Malaysian Informatics and Programming Society (MIPS) is pleased to be organizing the Malaysia Computing Olympiad (MCO) Training Camp during the upcoming December school holidays.

Background

The objective of this camp is to train students in C++ programming and algorithmic thinking in preparation for the MCO 2020. MCO 2020 is a algorithmic programming competition that will be the next selection process for the Malaysian national team to the International Olympiad in Informatics (IOI) 2020. The MCO will be held tentatively in April 2020.

Eligibility

The training camp is open only to the individual Gold, Silver and Bronze medallists in MCC 2019. Due to space and manpower constraints, we can only host a limited number of students. Please note that attending this camp is optional. Individual MCC 2019 medalists who decide not to attend this camp will still qualify for MCO 2020 if they fulfill all the requirements.
