Inter-university spring hackathon

There is nothing better than a "hackathon" to consolidate the knowledge gained in programming. A hackathon is a forum for developers in which specialists from different areas of software development (programmers, designers, managers) work together to solve a problem within a certain period of time.

• What can't a programming student do without? Practical training.
• What is very important when applying for a job? Experience.
• What's the most fun way to learn? In a great company.

    The hackathon, dedicated to creating applications with students from different universities, successfully combines all three aspects.

Purpose of the hackathon:

To train and develop students' professional skills in developing algorithms for solving inventive problems and to promote the hackathon.

Objectives of the hackathon:

To develop competences in searching and analyzing information and quick learnability;
To provide an opportunity for beginner developers to communicate with each other and expand their circle of contacts.
