HudHack2026

HudHack is the University of Huddersfield’s flagship student-led hackathon, bringing together passionate developers, designers, engineers, and problem-solvers for an exciting fullday event.

Over the course of the event, participants collaborate in teams to design, build, and present creative tech solutions to real-world challenges. Whether you're an experienced coder or attending your first hackathon, HudHack is designed to be inclusive, supportive, and beginner-friendly.

• Beginner-Friendly Environment – No prior hackathon experience required. We provide workshops, mentors, and support throughout the event.

• Hands-On Learning – Participants gain real experience working under time constraints, building projects from idea to prototype.

• Industry Exposure – Sponsors and industry professionals attend as mentors and judges, giving participants networking opportunities and valuable feedback.

• Competitive & Fun – Prizes for top teams, mini-games, and interactive challenges (including a CTF) keep the energy high.

• Community Focused – HudHack is built by students, for students. It’s not just about winning — it’s about learning, collaborating, and pushing your limits.
