Code Camp

Code Camp is a learning and hacking experience. The code camp approach can be defined as a collaborative learning setting that aims to promote profession-oriented skills. In code camp, the term camp refers to a situation where students assemble and stay a while together. The term code refers to coding, i.e. writing computer programs. During a code camp, students write programs together, solve problems related to their work together, eat together and even might relax together in a sauna.

This page is a portal that compiles information about all Code Camps and Hackathon events going on at LUT and cooperating with LUT collaboration universities, specially organized by LUT Software engineering group. Usually, at LUT we have at minimum of one or two Hackathon events / Code Camps for each semester (fall, spring and summer). Course signup is mostly organized by registration link on the event description or by direct contact with the teacher in charge. Please read the following event description information, and the find the sign up link / method for the specific event of your interest!
