Dates and Outline of the Course

Please note that the hackathons are held as block events before the start of the lecture period.

The next hackathons will be offered on the following dates:

  • Summer Term 2027: 12.04.-16.04.2027 (full day)

Bachelor's students participate in a total of two hackathons during their studies, master's students (from 2027) participate in one.

The hackathon is a block event in which you work intensively in small groups of up to six students on problems from science and industry. The event offers an exciting opportunity to apply theoretical knowledge to real-world use cases and develop creative solutions together as a team. You will present your solutions as a group on the last day of the hackathon and subsequently create a computational report documenting the results and approaches.

The registration period is in the preceding semester.
