MtA Hacks is a computer science conference and hackathon hosted at Mount Allison University from March 10 to March 12. The weekend will gather university and high school students from across the Maritimes to build projects, attend workshops, and meet industry experts. Teams will brainstorm, build, and pitch projects with the aim of creating something that will help people in their daily lives. We’ll bring in judges from across North America to pick a winning group – previous years, judges have included folks from Google, Dell, RideCo, and Tantramar Interactive. By the end of the day, you’ll have learned new tools, added a project to your resume, and made 74 new friends. Oh, and by the way, there will be free food, swag, and cash prizes!
