AI hackathon - join the info session

Explore AI in Lifelong Learning: YERUN Student Hackathon

Maastricht University invites students from YERUN universities to participate in an AI-focused hackathon centred on lifelong learning. An info session is scheduled for Monday 28 October.

The event is called the YERUN Digital Education Hackathon and aims to explore AI’s potential in enhancing digital education for professional development. 

Participants will attend structured sessions to understand AI’s applications in lifelong learning and gain practical experience in creating AI-driven solutions for real-world challenges. 

As the hackathon approaches, students are invited to join an online walk-in session where they can ask questions and learn more about the event. The information session will take place on Monday, 28 October from 11:00 to 12:00 CET.
