The contests, which are held every year, are aimed to constantly increase university students' programming and designing skills and their creativity and thus prepare them to be practical talents possessed of intelligence outpacing the world.

The Education Commission conducted scrupulous organizational and political work to make all contests serve as important occasions for furthering the campaign, in which one overtakes and learns from others and swaps experience with them, among universities and students, and for heightening the students' zeal for study and raising their abilities.

Students from Kim Il Sung University, Kim Chaek University of Technology and University of Sciences proved successful in the contests by displaying their high abilities.
