​It's time for CMU UXA's annual design hackathon! Join us for a weekend of fun, innovation & creativity from March 14th - 16th.

​Theme

​Reimagining Human Connection in the Digital Age
In an era shaped by digital interactions and evolving social norms, we can reach anyone, anywhere - yet life has become more isolating. How can design bring people closer together?

​Who can join?

​XHacks is open to all university students, regardless of school or degree program. Don't worry if you don't have much experience in design—the weekend will include workshops and short lectures to help get everyone up to speed. And you'll have help! Mentors will be available to give advice and answer your questions.

​All participants will be entered in a raffle for a FREE ticket to Config!!! ($799 value)

​Prizes include mini projectors, Lego sets, Squishmallows, and more!

​How do I join?

​You're already here! RSVP here on Luma & join UXA's Slack and join #xhacks-25. The team formation form will be released on Tuesday, March 11th. Teams can be 2-4 people.
