HackUMBC hackathon, Sat-Sun Oct 1-2 at UMBC

HackUMBC 1-2 October 2016, UMBC

On Saturday and Sunday, October 1-2, UMBC will host a 24-hour hackathon called HackUMBC where students come together in teams of up to four and build hardware or software projects, learn from technology experts, and share ideas. At the end of the 24 hours students will present their projects in an expo in which judges will select winners who will win awesome prizes!

All students are welcome! No experience or qualifications are necessary, just a curiosity to try new things and a passion for innovation.

The HackUMBC organizers will provide meals, snacks, swag, and sleeping space. Mentors and tech talks will share useful knowledge to help you create things that you never thought were possible.

Opening ceremonies will be in the Meyerhoff Chemistry Building then team formation, project building, and workshops will take place in the ITE and Engineering buildings. Registration will open up at 10:00am on Saturday October 1st in front of Meyerhoff. The project expo will be on Sunday in the University Center Ballroom starting at 1:00pm, and closing ceremonies will begin at 3:00pm.

UMBC students get priority consideration by applying on the HackUMBC website,  which will be updated with more details as the event approaches.  For more infomation, watch the website or contact the HackUMBC Team at hackumbc at gmail.com.
