About

FirstYearHack is back for 2024. Specifically aimed at 1st year informatics students. We invite you to stay on campus for the day, get to know your peers, and take part in most likely your first hackathon. FYH is a brilliant way to see how a hackathon runs and get prepared for future years. This year we are partnering with KCL Enactus for Entrepreneur Week where the challenge will be to develop one of the social entrepreneurship related ideas. More to come on this. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ KCL 1st year Informatics students only - make sure to 'purchase' a free KCL Tech membership from KCLSU before attending. If you are experiencing problems with getting your membership, please contact us or let us know on the day before the event starts. (https://www.kclsu.org/groups/activities/join/22559/)

About

KCL Tech is King’s College London’s dedicated Technology society, bringing together students with different skill sets from various disciplines to create an innovative and supportive community, sharing passions from AI to Quantum. Relaunched in 2022, the society has quickly built up a reputation for having exciting events from hosting TechSummit - the UK’s biggest student tech career fair, to running multiple hackathons (e.g., HackKing’s, HackLondon, FirstYearHack) as well as providing workshops and talks with industry. What’s more, all of our events are free. Focusing on three core aspects, Careers, Hackathons and Programming Workshops, the newly launched KCL Tech Academy aims to expand on the latter with not just workshops and bootcamps but supporting students with digital resources and tutorials.
