Only projects submitted by SummerHacks attendees will be judged!
SummerHacks is a 12-week long summer hackathon that you can compete in from your own home! You can either apply with a team (1-4) or we will begin team matching once you are accepted. Each team will be paired with a mentor (someone in industry, a professor, an experienced upperclassman, etc.) who your team will meet with every week to check in and to help your team out with any questions y'all may have. Throughout the hackathon, we will have various events (think panels, online game days, talks etc.) for both social and professional development. At the end of the 12 weeks, you will create a video demos that will be judged with the opportunity to win prizes.
