Welcome to Australia’s biggest student hackathon

Join 500+ students for a 48-hour hybrid hackathon weekend where you get to learn new skills, connect with brilliant mentors, forge new friendships with like-minded students, and build something incredible.

Everyone is welcome at UNIHACK, whether you are just getting started or a seasoned hacker. All you need is to be passionate about building stuff.

Is there a theme or prompt?

Officially, we do not have a theme or prompt. You can build whatever you want, in whatever shape that you want - a mobile app, a hardware piece, or even a video game. Every idea is eligible for the Main Prize.

Some of our prizes do have specific challenges or themes, and we strongly encourage you to use them to shape your idea.
