High school students from all over the world are invited to the International Olympiad in Industrial Development PROD.
The organizers are traditionally the educational platform of T-Bank T-Education and the Central University in cooperation with the Faculty of Computer Science of the Higher School of Economics of the National Research University.
Registration for 8th-11th grade students from all over the world will continue until December 1, 2026. The Olympics will be held in Russian and English. This year, PROD was included in the list of Olympiads of the Russian Ministry of Education.
This time, instead of solving problems from specific development areas, the participants will work simultaneously in several directions. The change in the format of the Olympics is related to changes in the developer profession and the demands of the IT market. School students will be able to get to know real business problems from IT companies, take a test drive of the IT specialist profession and develop their own product solutions under the guidance of experts. To participate, a basic school curriculum in computer science is sufficient.
"Our mission at T-Education is to create an educational environment where the student's interest in technology can develop into professional skills. PROD makes it possible to go through this path even before entering the university," said Igor Maslov, chief technical officer and vice president of T-Bank.
