HACKATHONMCGILL PHYSICS

Computational physics is the fusion of advanced computing techniques and scienti�c principles to virtually explore the uncharted world around us. Everything from games, planes, arti�cial intelli-gence, DNA, automobiles and advanced materi-als are being developed at a lightning pace these days, in large part due to the computational tools available to scientists to explore the nature of how things work. Advanced scienti�c computing is driving a new industrial revolution as advanced nations move into a digital economy. McGill University’s Department of Physics is proud to announce the 4th edition of the Phys-ics Hackathon! The event will take place on November 2-3, 2019 in Montreal. This competi-tion is open to all students with a strong interest

in programming and the physical sciences. This includes both high school, undergraduate and graduate students from any institution. Around 100 participants will be given the opportunity to hone their computing and scienti�c skills to hack a problem whose solution requires the integra-tion of physics, programming, artistic expression and communication. In the course of the compe-tition, the hackathonists will receive mentorship from experts from both industry and academia.
