UWB Hacks AI United States

Discord: https://discord.gg/GnSTYYcUEa  

UWB Hacks AI is the 8th annual hackathon at the University of Washington, Bothell. The UWB ACM intends to bring students with diverse skill sets together to make connections and create something useful and/or fun.

The UWB ACM is partnering with the Women in Cybersecurity (WiCyS) and the IxDA Design Club to offer this event as a tri-club effort. Students will be tasked to align their project to the following tracks and still connect with the overall theme of “AI”.

We are honored to have the sponsorship of Avanade and Muir AI.

The tracks for this year will be released during our opening ceremony on April 26th.

Track #1 -- Health and Biotech

Track #2 -- Business

Track #3 -- Education

Track #4 -- Entertainment
