McGill Physics Hackathon

Nov 15, 2024 6:00 PM to Nov 17, 2024 6:00 PM
Location: Trottier Building
Outreach Event

At its core, the McGill Physics Hackathon is a friendly computer programming competition. The goal is simple: with a 24-hour hacking period spread over 3 days, in a team of 2-5 people, put together some project which involves scientific computing and the physical sciences! There are no themes; the goal is to have fun and be creative. We want to welcome everyone into the wonderful world of scientific computing! Throughout the event, you'll have the opportunity to meet and learn from like-minded, curious, and passionate individuals. Experts from both academia and industry will also be present, either to help you with your projects, or just to chat! Disciplinary knowledge is optional; curiosity is the key!
