Hacktech by Caltech is SoCal’s premier annual intercollegiate hackathon. This is our 9th year hosting Hacktech and our first in-person hackathon since the pandemic, so we’re making sure this one is a banger. Hacktech will be covering transportation, food, and accommodation for all hackers coming from the SoCal area. For those not in the immediate vicinity, worry not! You can still tune in online to compete for over $10,000 in CASH prizes.
This year, we’ve decided to zero in on sustainability. With climate catastrophes regularly making headlines, it’s time to do our part in the fight against climate change. A large variety of projects will be acceptable, as long as it relates to our core theme of sustainability. This may include addressing issues such as reducing waste and pollution, promoting renewable energy, and increasing energy efficiency.
Some possible sample projects to give you an idea and to get your creative mind started include: Optimizing power systems with Deep Learning, incentivizing reduced energy usage through gamification, and a series of interactive Jupyter Notebooks to give users a sense of the scale of Climate Impact in US Coastal Cities and more.
We are truly excited to see how you choose to innovate and tackle these difficult issues.
We will provide additional support along the way with interactive workshops to help you hone your problem solving skills and build lasting connections with peers and companies alike.
