Def Hacks | Global 2.0

A hackathon for the students, by the students

Def Hacks Global 2.0 is a 36-hour long hackathon for high school and college students. Here, we will support young innovators and build a strong community of developers who will tackle world problems using technology. Don’t know how to code? No problem - there is an amazing line-up of beginner workshops coached by CS YouTubers, where you can learn new skills to use in projects. We will also have Craig Newark (Founder of Craigslist), David Patterson (Turing Award Recipient), and Ken Goldberg (Robotics Professor at Berkeley), along with many more notable speakers to share their valuable knowledge. To support innovators in creating the projects of their dreams, we’ll have professional mentors to give hackers advice, plan, and help them debug! In the end, students will be allowed to submit projects to various tracks such as Remote Education, HealthTech, and Road Safety, or our General Beginner or Advanced tracks, each offering their winnable prizes!
