Beyond Code is a global online hackathon for all students across the globe. Students of all levels of computer science experience ranging from novices to experienced coders can find categories that can challenge them to think critically. From global pandemics to societal unrest to the imperatives of digitization, we are in a time that is primed for change. Organizations are being forced to adapt and flex, finding creative ways to address new and ever-changing problems. We want YOU to think big and harness the endless potential of our platform to address a problem you care about. This hackathon is beyond the world of coding - we want you to create something meaningful with dedication to help others around you in these challenging times. You should use your awesome ideas and skills to make an impact in this world. We welcome you to use this platform to be the change that you are keen to see in this world!
