精品SM在线影片 Sustainability Hackathon
What is the Hackathon?
The 2024 Sustainability Hackathon provides the opportunity to 鈥渉ack鈥 some of the sustainability issues our society is facing. Your solution to a problem could include technology or have no technology at all. The key is coming together with others who are passionate about solving problems, teaming up on a solution idea, and having fun in the process of building something to have an impact on the world. Students, faculty, and staff will have 168 hours to hack sustainability problems and have a shot at winning a share of $10,000!
