The University of Dublin Trinity College IEEE Student branch is celebrating IEEE day 2023 by launching IEEE Xtreme in TCD. In IEEE Xtreme, teams from IEEE Student branches will compete to solve programming challenges in 24 hours. A team is composed of up to 3 IEEE Student or Graduate Student members, but at least one must be a Student member (undergraduate). We are hoping to form at least one team to participate but multiple teams from the same university can take part. IEEE Xtreme will take place on 28th October 2023. First Prize is a subsidised trip to an IEEE conference of your choice anywhere in the world. IEEE day is a worldwide event, celebrating the foundation of the IEEE. Although the current incarnation of the IEEE was formed in 1963, it is the successor of many other organisations, the earliest being the American Institute of Electrical Engineers, founded in 1884. We will celebrate IEEE day with an event hosted in the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering. We will have an introduction by our Branch Chair, informal discussions between staff and students, launch of the IEEE Xtreme competition and an official unveiling of our program of events for 2023 - 2024 by our Vice-Chair. We plan to have refreshments afterwards.
