Due to current funding limitations for OHW, this year we are not able to provide free-of-charge lodging and meals to all participants. to cover shortfalls in lodging and meals support. We’re doing everything we can to keep costs low and provide opportunities for additional support to participants with the greatest need.
Attention potential industry partners and other sponsors
We are looking for industry partners or other sponsors to help us lower costs for participants and expose them to private-sector careers in ocean data science! Please contact Julek Chawarski to learn more and discuss options. Even small funding support would be really helpful. Thank you!
The OceanHackWeek program consists of hands-on tutorials, visual presentations, and collaborative hack projects throughout a 5-day period.
The events will be all-day workshops (approximately 9am - 5pm). Join us for five days of hands-on tutorials, data exploration, software development, presentations, collaborative hack projects and community networking! Check out the past hackweeks for an idea of what a hackweek is like!
