Our hackathon aims to inspire students to have an impact on the real world while expressing their own creativity and imagination. SRC Code revolves around the theme of creating an impact using technology. Our lives are perpetually influenced by the world around us, whether it be the political, environmental, or social aspects of life. We want to inspire students to harness their potential to create a disturbance in this massive world of ours. SRC Code offers a spectrum of opportunities for bright, passionate students interested in STEM to express and explore their abilities. Our hackathon creates a unique experience with computer science that is rarely achieved elsewhere. The endless possibilities and projects a hacker can pursue truly stimulates creativity and originality while simultaneously encouraging learning and experimentation. SRC Code takes place in the Tri Valley, at the heart of Silicon Valley. Bringing a diverse group of passionate students of STEM, SRC Code offers hackers a memorable and enjoyable opportunity to learn about and express their ideas with the aid of technology. SRC Code aims to attract hackers who are interested in coding and bring the wonderful experiences of programming to our community. We want to provide the necessary resources to push those unsure of where to begin in the right direction while also strengthening the programming and developing skills of those more experienced.
