A hackathon is an event where many programmers gather up for a couple hours to collaborate on a project, network with people, get free stuff, and have fun! The students’ projects are then pitched to judges for a chance to win prizes!

We want to provide a valuable experience for both beginners and advanced coders alike. We have plenty of swag, workshops, and games for attendees to enjoy at no cost.
