Cipher Craft

A hackathon is a 36-hour event where students come together to create a project from scratch. It is a great opportunity to learn new skills, meet new people, and have fun!

Cipher Craft is completely free for all participants. We will provide food, drinks, and swag for all participants. We are not able to provide travel reimbursements at this time.

Students of all skill levels are welcome to participate in Cipher Carft. We encourage students to bring their friends and teammates to the event!

Absolutely! We encourage students of all skill levels to participate in Cipher Craft. We will have mentors available to help you with your projects and answer any questions you may have.

All you need to bring is your laptop, charger, and a valid student ID/CNIC. We will provide food, drinks, and swag for all participants.

You can be on teams of up to 4. We will have a team building activity right after opening ceremony if you need to find team members!

You cannot start until after opening ceremony. You may come up with ideas, but are not allowed to start coding. You cannot work on a previous project, but can use frameworks if you clearly credit them in your readme and differentiate what you made vs what you used.

We will post the schedule closer to the event. There will be workshops and activities to take a break and meet other hackers and our wonderful sponsors.

We do not have hardware available, but you are welcome to bring your own. Due to building fire codes, please do not bring soldering kits.

You can sign up here.

We will send out acceptances 5 days before the event. If you need to know before then to book travel, please reach out to our team for an early review. Applications will be closing once we reach the maximum amount of hackers we can support, but we will have a waitlist the day of the event for any local hackers who want to fill the spots of any accepted hackers who do not end up attending.

Attendees must be at least 15 years old due to child privacy laws. If under 18, you can attend, but will need to fill out a liability form from the university.

No, you can leave and come back.
