What is FamHack?

FamHack is a one-day academic-family hackathon for first-year Informatics students and their academic parents. It turns the academic family network into a real team experience: build together, compete together, and meet the people you will keep around long after first year.

The public programme centres on three challenge paths: a flagship main track, a CompSoc collaboration, and a scavenger hunt designed for mixed-skill teams.
