about this event

The wait is finally over. UNIHACK is back for 2026 and shaping up to be better than ever! Whether you're looking to boost your resume or create something meaningful, this is your chance to step outside your comfort zone and build something unforgettable. Not to mention the enticing prize pool, courtesy of our generous sponsors.

Never heard of UNIHACK? Originating at WIRED, a Monash IT club, UNIHACK has quickly grown into one of Australia's most popular student hackathons! Over the course of three action-packed days, you and your team will respond to a chosen prompt, brainstorm ideas, and turn them into a working prototype to present before industry judges. Whether you're a beginner to coding or a seasoned hackathon participant, this is the perfect opportunity to showcase your skills and get inspired!
