We are Australia's premier student hackathon!

Teams have roughly 48 hours to design and build something awesome. It can be anything - a website, a mobile application, a video game, or even something hardware. The important thing is that it needs to work when it is presented to the judges.

Whether you are an avid programmer or a first-time hacker, UNIHACK welcomes everyone, regardless of skill level. You will have the opportunity to build, collaborate and learn from your fellow hackers and mentors at the event. The event will also have a number of tech talks throughout to help participants learn new or extend their existing skills.

• Polish, Design, and Execution
  What does the project look like? Is it intuitive, aesthetically pleasing, and accessible? And most importantly, does it actually work?
• Technical Difficulty
  Does the hack look technically interesting or challenging? Is it simply putting a pretty frontend on an existing API or does it do something more?
• Originality and Creativity
  How unique is the hack? Does it solve a new problem, or have a new take on an existing problem?
• Wow Factor
  Does it spark joy? Would this be something you use and show to your friends? Yes, this is totally subjective. But that’s what makes it fun.
