4. Which course of study should I be following to make participation worthwhile?
As the case study has a highly technical focus, you should preferably be studying electrical engineering, telecommunications engineering, communications engineering or applied computer science.
5. What tools and aids are allowed?
It goes without saying that you can use all aids available to you (books, lecture notes, etc.). You can also take along your personal notebook PC.
6. What are the criteria for deciding whether a team can participate?
Your reasons for wanting to participate in the competition and your field of study are the main factors for deciding on your participation in the preliminary rounds.

Of course, you can also register as an individual. On the day of the event, you can then join with other individual applicants to form a team. The minimum team size is three, and the maximum is five.
