What we’re planning

Workshops, projects and events

Learn the basics at a workshop, then try a project on your own or with other students.

Michaelmas · Once a year

AI workshops

We’re planning six sessions in Michaelmas on using AI tools, GitHub and testing your work. You’ll make a small project and show it to the group.

Throughout the year

Work on a project

Find people with similar interests, ask for help when you get stuck and get feedback on what you’re making.

Once a year

Society hackathon

We’re planning a 24-hour hackathon in Oxford. Form a team, try out an idea and show what you’ve made to other students and invited judges.

Year-end · Selected teams

Project showcase

For the year-end showcase, teams will submit a short pitch showing their progress. Selected teams will present to other students, partners and invited guests.
