What is DeisHacks?

DeisHacks is an annual social justice hackathon at Brandeis University, sponsored by Brandeis International Business School, that brings together students, faculty and community members to tackle challenges faced by local nonprofits.

Over a weekend, teams collaborate to develop solutions for real-world problems in areas like education, healthcare and housing, fostering creativity, technical skills and social impact. It offers students a chance to make a meaningful difference while gaining hands-on experience in project development and teamwork.

 Join 250+ hackers for 48-hours while we hack for social good!

The event will be held on the weekend of January 30-February 1st, 2026 in person at Brandeis University.

By registering, I agree to the event rules:

1. Work must be entirely completed during the hackathon hours. We want original projects tailored to our non-profit partners, not previously submitted to other events.

2. You must submit a 3-minute (max) video demo! Judges will only consider the video - they will not consider any text or links submitted - if you want to show those, you have to put them in the video itself.

3. You must be on a team of 2-6 people! We would like only 1 submission per team. Hackers can only be a member of 1 team. You can bring a team or find one at the event.
