We love organizing MHacks (and each other too!)

We’re the team that organizes and runs MHacks! You might’ve attended or heard of MHacks 16, Google x MHacks, or MHacks 2024. Our mission is to foster a vibrant community of tech-loving students at the University of Michigan by hosting engaging and innovative hackathons. Hackathons aren’t just fun—they’re also incredible opportunities for learning, collaboration, and turning ideas into reality.

MHacks Subteams: Explained

MHacks runs on subteams! We try to split our work into six distinct areas: Technology, Design, Logistics, Outreach, Sponsorship, and Media. While we all meet weekly to discuss our progress, each subteam operates largely independently to focus on their specific responsibilities.
