TalTech Rector's Cup general rules
- When competing in the Rector's cup, all team members must belong to the same faculty (except university employees, who are so-called free agents)
- Competition points for the Rector's cup are distributed only to the best team of each faculty
- If the team does not consist of members only from one faculty, then the members of this team will only earn activity points
- In night basketball and night volleyball, the three best teams will be awarded
All employees (including the university management and those employees who specifically belong to a faculty) can be so-called free agents at the university. University employees, i.e. free agents, can choose their own faculty at each stage of the Rector's Cup or be recruited by other members of the university family.
Points system
The point system for the Rector's Cup consists of two parts: points obtained from the competitions and participation or so called activity points.
Competition Points:
I place - 120p
II place - 100p
III place - 80p
IV place - 70p
V place - 60p
PS! Only the best team of the faculty will receive competition points for the Rector's Cup.
Activity points system:
Each participant (student, employee, alumni) automatically earns an activity point for representing their faculty, regardless of the place he got in the competition.
Activity points are distributed according to the proportion of the faculty's students out of the total number of students at the university, as of November 2022. With each participation, the faculties earn points as follows:
School of Engineering: 1
School of IT: 1.11
School of Business and Governance: 1.46
School of Science: 5.65
TalTech Maritime Academy: 6.15
