Spring 2027 signup We’re Columbia’s AI/ML Student Hackathon Team
We compete in remote hackathons like OpenAI to Z, Parameter Golf, Name That LLM, and NFL Big Data Bowl. We are part of Columbia Software Solutions.
The Cohort
290c is a small, selective AI/ML hackathon cohort.
Everything runs online. Between hackathons, we coordinate asynchronously, with no travel, standing meetings, or required workshops.
Who Can Join
Undergraduate and graduate students at any Columbia-affiliated school are encouraged to apply.
The cohort is designed for advanced engineers who want to collaborate with other students working in AI/ML.
All experience levels are welcome to apply, with strong preference given to students who have competed in hackathons before.
Join 290c
If you like solving difficult problems with other people, we’d like you to be part of this.
Join the spring 2027 interest list and we’ll email you early access to the application.
