Wellesley Hackathon

WHACK: Where Tech Meets Everyone
WHACK, the Wellesley Hackathon, breaks down tech barriers by welcoming students from all backgrounds. No coding experience? No problem. Have a project idea? You're ready to participate. This annual event proves that innovation comes from diverse perspectives, not just computer science degrees.
Learn, Build, Connect:
Turn your ideas into reality with support from industry experts and hands-on workshops that make tech accessible and fun. CS students can bring their projects to life, while newcomers discover their potential through beginner-friendly guidance. Plus, enjoy great food and snag exclusive tech swag while you create.
Your Gateway to Tech Opportunities & Community:
Connect directly with companies sharing real career insights and opportunities in the tech industry. Meet like-minded friends who share your interests and build lasting relationships in an inclusive environment where half our participants are underclassmen and underrepresented minorities in tech. At WHACK, you're not just coding – you're joining a supportive community of peers and mentors that will support your tech journey long after the hackathon ends.
