What are flights?
Similar to golf, the ERPsim Competition uses the flight system. After game one is complete, teams are broken into two different groups. The best-performing teams will be placed in Flight One. They will compete in the second game for the overall first to fifth place. The rest of the teams will be placed in Flight Two to compete for first to third place.
ERPsim Student Spirit Awards
Two students who embrace and embody the game will be given the ERPsim Student Spirit Award. These students have shown support for their fellow teammates and competitors. They demonstrate excellent teamwork and enthusiastically help others who are struggling. The recipients of this award are selected by the faculty who participate in the training sessions.
International ERPSIm Competition
The winners of CMU's ERPsim Invitational Competition are invited to compete against universities from all over the world in the International ERPism Competition.
CMU has a strong history in the event with our team winning in 2013 and coming in second place in 2018 and 2019. Unfortunately, the 2020 competition was canceled due to COVID-19. We look forward to performing even better in the next competition.
