The CIUK Cluster Challenge is a national inter-collegiate competition. This year there were 16 student teams taking part from across the UK.

The competition was formed of three challenges during October and November, before culminating in an additional three challenges at Computing Insights UK (CIUK) in Manchester in December.

The team performed well in the initial pre-conference challenges, and were at the top of the leaderboard heading into the onsite challenges.

They were supported throughout by the team mascot, Archie ‘ARC’vark.

Competition was fierce and overall team (u)CLI finished 3rd out of 15 teams who completed all challenges. Narrowly missing out on 2nd place by 2 points. Full results are available on the CIUK Cluster Challenge website.

Overall the team performed very well and received some very positive feedback from some of the challenge setters.

We look forward to supporting future teams in new challenges, and building a community of students who want to participate through our termly Cluster Club sessions.
