ConUHacks is a 24-hour competition where teams of up to four students build a software or hardware project. The theme and our sponsored challenges serve as guides for your creativity. After 24 hours of caffeine-fuelled hacking, every team presents its project to our judges.

FAQ

  • What is a hackathon?

    A hackathon is a programming competition where people collaborate in teams to build a working software or hardware prototype within a limited amount of time. At ConUHacks, teams have 24 hours to develop their project before presenting it to our judges.

  • Who can participate?

    If you will be a high school, college or university student at the time of the event, do not hesitate to apply! You are also eligible if you have graduated within the last 6 months!

  • Do I need a team?

    No. You can register on your own and join or form a team later. Teams can have up to four people.

  • What if I am not a coder?

    Hackathons are not only for programmers! Students from different disciplines are just as important to create a well-rounded project. If you are a passionate learner looking to build something cool, we want you to apply!

  • Can I join virtually?

    No. ConUHacks XI will be held entirely in person at Concordia University's Sir George Williams Campus in downtown Montreal.

  • What should I bring?

    Make sure to bring a valid ID! The rest will depend on what you will need to work on your project. Here is a list of what we recommend bringing for the event: your laptop, phone and their respective chargers, toiletries, a change of clothes, a reusable water bottle, and a blanket.

  • Is parking available for participants?

    We are exploring offering free parking to all participants on Saturday and Sunday for the duration of the event. We will provide more information once we are able to confirm availability.

  • Are travel reimbursements available?

    Yes! We are offering travel reimbursements for hackers travelling from outside of Québec.
