AI For Good Hackathon!

A week-long, in-person hackathon focused on building, learning, and collaborating with AI.

This is our first large-scale hackathon in partnership with ACM-W, designed to bring students together to create meaningful, creative, and technical AI projects. Whether you're brand new to hackathons or experienced, this is a space to experiment, learn from peers, and build something you’re proud to show off.

Schedule:

  • May 16th @ 12:00 pm - Opening Ceremony 
  • May 16th @ 2:00pm - Start Hacking
  • Workshops
  • May 22nd @ 2:00pm - Submit Project
  • May 23rd @ 12:00pm - Closing Ceremony + Prizes

We’re excited to help grow Oregon’s hackathon culture while giving students hands-on experience building real AI projects in a collaborative environment.
