For context, please refer to this thread. TLDR: over the past four years, Georgia Tech has always placed second in our ICPC regional contest, and did not advance to the ICPC World Finals due to the region repeatedly being allocated only one slot.

I would like to try a thought experiment: are there CF users with ratings 2400 or higher, are ICPC eligible for WF20 (based on extrapolations of the criteria for WF19), and would be interested in spending a year at Georgia Tech from mid-August 2019 to May 2020? The tentative plan for funding is at the Masters student rate (full tuition coverage, plus a stipend of about 1500 USD / month), with other responsibilities being TAing for algorithms courses and conducting research.

If you are interested, please email me at [email protected] with your CF id, and ideally, a short CV. Please also note that while I'm extensively involved with algorithmic problem solving competitions, my role with the GT ICPC team is minimal: the main coach/organizer is fahrbach.
