The 8th Rowdyhacks event was held on March 25th – 26th, 2023 in UTSA’s newly established School of Data Science (SDS).

Hackers from all disciplines, backgrounds, & technical levels were welcomed and the event brought together a diverse group of individuals with a shared passion for technology and innovation. RowdyHacks was a huge success, and we are proud to have been a part of it.

Students joined to network, code, collaborate, and compete. Event highlights included 6 mini events, 6 workshops, 17 judges, 40 mentors, 505 hackers and 76 projects and $5,778 in prizes.

Projects ranged from ‘RowdyChat’; a SpringBoot web server that lets you log in with Github Oauth, linking your account to a phone number so that you can receive SMS messages from certain group chats, to ‘Lost in Translation’; a game about experiencing different cultures through languages.

Judging was based on: Business Value, Impact, Realistic and Innovation
