Corpus Hacks is a 12-hour student-run hackathon for female and nonbinary middle and high school students in the Bay Area. Participants will receive free swag, prizes and food. We hope to provide participants with an inclusive environment where they can engage in workshops, learn from industry experts, find peers with similar interests in computer science, and develop their coding skills in a stress-free setting.
All experience levels are welcome! Corpus Hacks invites beginners to participate.
Projects will be judged by industry experts from Bay Area tech companies.
We will send out waivers to participants who filled out the registration form.
A computer and a charger. Everything else will be provided.
No, teams are not required. We will give time for participants to meet each other and form teams of up to four at the beginning of the event.
A hackathon is an educational event where coders can create new things—you can make apps, websites, hardware hacks, etc.
Though the hackathon is primarily targeted towards female and nonbinary middle and high school students, all students of any gender are eligible to attend.
No, you are welcome to leave whenever you want!

Corpus Hacks aims to help bridge the gender gap in the field of computer science and technology—despite being a rapidly growing field, in 2021, only 21% of computer scientists in the United States were women. Through Corpus Hacks, we want to increase this percentage by providing an opportunity for marginalized genders to further explore their interest in STEM.
