What Hack the Wu is

Teams spend a weekend building something new, from an app to a hardware project, then show it off at the end. This is our second year running it.

Beginner friendly

Never been to a hackathon or written much code? You're exactly who we built this for.

Open to all students

Undergrad and grad students are both welcome to join.

Every major welcome

Design, business, science and engineering students all bring something a team needs.

From our first hackathon

Big ideas. Shared experience.
