The Faculty of Computing at NSBM Green University has achieved a remarkable milestone at the IEEEXtreme Global Programming Competition 2026, with two of its teams securing the first and second places in Sri Lanka. The teams also secured 61st and 62nd places globally, emerging as the highest-ranked Sri Lankan teams in the competition. Remarkably, six of NSBM teams ranked among Sri Lanka’s top 11, placing within the world’s top 146 teams in this internationally recognised 24-hour programming competition.
IEEEXtreme is an annual global programming competition organised by IEEE, bringing together undergraduate and postgraduate students from universities across the world to compete in solving complex programming challenges within a demanding 24-hour period. The competition tests participants’ programming proficiency, logical reasoning, problem-solving abilities, and capacity to work under pressure. This outstanding performance reflects the technical competence, dedication, and collaborative spirit of NSBM students at the Faculty of Computing.
As NSBM Green University marked its 10th Anniversary recently, this achievement stands as another testament to the talent and potential of its students and the academic strength of the University.
