The N.C. PSI Hackathon is an annual event that gives undergraduates, graduate students and postdoctoral scholars the chance to demonstrate their skills in a 3-day competition to solve ag tech related challenges for prizes and, of course, bragging rights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the goal to accelerate agricultural research using data analytics, machine learning, and hardware fabrication, our annual Hackathons have multiple tracks and are inclusive to participants with various levels of experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Impactful ideation. Authentic collaboration. Innovative solutions. That\u2019s the N.C. Plant Sciences Initiative (PSI) Hackathon experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
