Eligibility:
Teams should be made up exclusively of students (or recent graduates within one year of having graduated).
Professionals are allowed to participate, but will not be eligible for prizes.

Judging Criteria
-
Learning
Did the team stretch themselves? Did they try to learn something new? What projects have they worked on before? If a team that always does VR projects decides to switch up and try doing a mobile app instead, that exploration should be rewarded. -
Completion
Does the hack work? Did the team achieve everything they wanted? -
Design
Did the team put thought into the user experience? How well-designed is the interface? For a website, this might be about how beautiful the CSS or graphics are. For a hardware project, it might be more about how good the human-computer interaction is. -
Technology
How technically impressive was the hack? Was the technical problem the team tackled difficult? Did it use a particularly clever technique or did it use many different components? Did the technology involved make you go "Wow"?
