The Lanqiao Cup National Software and Information Technology Professional Talent Competition, organized by the Talent Exchange Center of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of the People’s Republic of China and hosted by Guoxin Lanqiao Education Technology (Beijing) Co., Ltd., is a prestigious computer science competition. It aims to support the national strategies of building a solid manufacturing and cybernation, foster innovation and reform in teaching computer, software, and electronic information disciplines in higher education, and enhance students’ independent innovation and engineering practice capabilities. The university group competition has been featured in the “National College Student Competition Rankings” by the China Association of Higher Education for five consecutive years. This year’s competition saw over 230,000 participants from more than 1,900 universities, including Peking University, Tsinghua University, Fudan University, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, and the University of Science and Technology of China, with more than 20,000 advancing to the national finals.

In recent years, the NEFU School of Control and Computer Engineering has actively explored a new teaching model integrating competition with learning through educational reform and subject competitions. This model significantly enhances students’ practical skills and achieves outstanding results.
