So you want to help us build cool stuff with us…

We are always looking for contributors for many of our projects. The more people we have, the more ambitious we can be!

Additionally club elections are held anually, so you also have the opportunity to run for a leadership position if you are an active member.

active projects

Do not fret if you don’t have the right experience. As long as you have a willingness to learn that is the most important thing.

Currently we are seeking help for people to help with the following projects:

parts+tools

A utility for students to borrow parts and tools they need to build their projects, free of charge.

  • Frontend: Django
  • Backend: Django, Docker, PostgreSQL
  • Hardware: ESP32, RFID, C
  • Also looking for hacklab ambassadors to help run the program

This is actually part of the larger project, lab of the future, whose goal is to make our lab as smart and easy to use as possible.

  • Mechanical: 3D printing, CAD, and more

our website

A place for students to learn about our organization and the projects we are working on.

  • Frontend: Hugo, Markdown, HTML, CSS
  • We need content writers too!
