Description:
The Potomac ACM Policy Challenge encourages talented students who value a peaceful future, collaboration, and intellectual experience to conduct research on technology policy outside of the classroom. We believe that young students can influence their community by increasing engagement, knowledge, and awareness about technology policy and forming a public consensus on it. Public awareness, comprehension, and participation can help shape tomorrow's technology policy.

The Challenge, organized by the Potomac Association for Computing Machinery Chapter, is a forum for students free to apply, showcase their research, exchange ideas, and improve their communication skills while competing for awards. Our candidates will use knowledge and skills to advance the profession and make a positive impact.

The Challenge is open to students from any country. Candidates must be twenty-two years old or younger on the submission deadline date.
