Uber & Superposition, the Bay Area’s oldest & largest hackathon for female and non-binary high school and college students, are excited to host Uberposition. To bridge the gender gap in STEM, we aim to create a welcoming, supportive environment for all women to explore computer science and build their confidence.
We're going virtual! Join us in October for technical and career-building workshops, networking opportunities, and amazing prizes like iPads, keyboards, headsets, and more. Project submission is optional- you can come just for the learning opportunities!
No coding experience is required. Attendees can submit a project to either technical or business tracks. Beginners will have access to intro-level workshops. Exact workshops TBD.
SCHEDULE
Workshops & mentors will be available everyday, from 2-5 PM PT.

TESTIMONIALS
“I honestly loved the entire hackathon. I met so many new people, created a web app, and had so much fun. I was super worried that I wouldn't be able to do well. I was sure that I would mess up because my coding background was really weak. But I was able to find a supportive group with whom I really connected. This entire experience has been life-changing. The first of anything is always a different experience. I don't think that any future hackathons that I plan to attend will ever top this.”
"The Superposition V Hackathon was better than I ever could have thought, it was such an impactful and incredible experience that I'll never forget. I'm so much more confident now as a woman in STEM."
