Requirements

Software hacks are highly encouraged to develop for SASEhack FALL 2023 as we are unable to provide resources for hardware-based projects due to our virtual environment.

 

As a refresher, this year’s theme is Our Resilience, meaning teams will design solutions that foster collaboration, community-building, and forming connections with others in order to tackle real world issues. Projects should stick to this theme.

 

Prompt #1, Mental Health: Develop a solution to promote mental well-being and support students in managing their mental health

 

Prompt #2, Environmental Adaptability: Develop a solution to address environmental challenges such as climate change, disaster response, resource conservation, or renewable energy.
