On October 21, 2011 was held the annual programming contest called "IEEExtreme 5.0" in which three students in Computer Systems Engineering from Tesco, IEEE members, took first place standing at 793 of 1,515 teams participants worldwide, with the participation of countries like China, India, Thailand, Canada, USA, Peru, Brazil, among others.

The competition consists of a series of problems proposed by IEEE which should be solved within 24 hours via online, in which the same participants are programming them uninterruptedly getting points for each problem solved and in turn by the time it takes to encode correctly.
