In our 5-part student-run workshop series, we'll show you how programming can be fun, thought-provoking, and powerful. With various workshops, speakers, and fun activities throughout the series, TEC provides a welcoming environment perfect for first-time coders and first-time hackathon attendees.
At the end of the series, students will have the opportunity to make their own final project to tackle a real life problem, guided by our mentors.
A hack’shop couples the educational experience of a workshop with the creative problem-solving nature of a hackathon; each workshop includes a short lecture and a project to apply new skills.
Participants ages 12 and up who have agreed to our Code of Conduct are welcome to attend! If you are out of this age range and wish to attend, please contact us.
We will have 5 different weekend workshops, which are designed to be followed in order, starting from simple syntax to UI, ending with a final project that addresses a real life problem on the last weekend. For more information, please refer to our schedule below.
Nothing! TEC is free of charge, thanks to our generous sponsors.
Just bring your laptop!
For the final project, students will use their skills and work with each other, with teams up to 4 people, on tackling a given problem.
