How many teams can each educational institution send to take part in the DMC competition? A maximum of two teams can register from each educational institution (university, technical university, vocational university etc.).
Who can register a team? Any interested party who at the time of the competition is an enrolled student at an international or national education institution can register a team from their institution. The person making the registration is also the team leader.
Must the team leader be a student? Yes, both the leader and the members must be enrolled as students at the time of the competition.
How large can the team be? There are no restrictions. There must be at least one person (team leader).
Can an individual participate in the competition? Yes. A team may consist of just one person (team leader). But each team leader is obliged to add potential students as members of the team. This applies in particular if the educational institution has already registered two teams.
Do the team members have to register separately? No, that is not necessary. Only if the team comes among the teams who win the prize does the team leader have to list the team members before the prize is awarded and provide evidence of the student status for both the leader and the team members.
How do I register a team? Please check first whether the maximum number of permitted teams per institution has been reached in the team summary . If not, then register a new team online. Only when you receive the separate confirmation email giving you your team ID is your team authorised for participation.
There are already two teams from my educational institution. What can I do to take part in the competition? In this case contact one of the two team leaders; you will find their contact data in the team summary. Each team leader is obliged to include new team members who meet the participation criteria into the team.
Can I register several teams? No. A team leader can only register and lead one team.
Can people who are not students take part in the competition? No, that is not possible in this year's competition. This time only students can take part.
