VSU, Azalea Health Partner for Software Development Competition

VALDOSTA — Valdosta State University’s Department of Computer Science has teamed up with Azalea Health to host Hackathon 2019 on Saturday, Feb. 9, at the STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) Center for Applied Creativity and Innovation.

Hackathon is open to all currently enrolled high school, college, and university students interested in computer science, engineering, or computer design. During the all-day competition, teams of two to five students will collaboratively develop innovative software applications for use in the healthcare industry — showing off their skills while competing for cash prizes.

Teams may be created at Hackathon or arranged beforehand. Competitors retain full ownership of what they create during the event.

A panel of judges will select the top three teams based on their application’s design, functionality, originality, awesomeness, and presentation. The first place team will receive $1,000. The second place team will receive $500. The third place team will receive $250. To be eligible for prizes, all code, design, art, music, SFX, and assets must be created onsite during the competition. Third party services, APIs, open source projects, libraries, and frameworks are encouraged.

The deadline to register to compete at Hackathon is 5 p.m. on Thursday, Feb. 7. There are no entry fees. Competitors must show proof of current enrollment as an active student at a verified high school or institution of higher education.

WiFi, food, drinks, swag, computers, and the opportunity to commune with like-minded Geeks will be provided. Students should bring a passion for developing something truly innovative to the event. They may also bring their cellphones, personal laptops and/or desktops, and anything else they might need throughout the day.

Check-in will begin at 8 a.m. After receiving a problem that needs solving, teams will work on their software applications from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and present their creations at 4:45 p.m. The presentation of awards will begin at 6 p.m. Lunch will be served at noon.
