Please complete the registration form in order to participate in the first annual ChampJam & Hackathon.

ChampJam’s mission is to challenge and inspire game makers of all skill levels to creatively solve problems through games. Over a 24 hour period, student teams will be tasked to create a game or project inspired by the prompt given at the start of the event. Volunteer mentors will be present during jamming hours to help you if you get stuck. The goal is fun and learning, so don’t take things too seriously :]

Students will be expected to bring their own laptops. Power bricks and extension cords will be provided. Hackathon students, or other students with low computing loads, are invited to use the Leahy Center computer lab. Meals will be provided Saturday and Sunday!
