Welcome to LeicesterCS, the University of Leicester's premier technology enthusiast society. We are a collective of students who are passionate about all things related to programming, technology, and the world of silicon.
Whether you are studying an Informatics course or simply have an interest in these fields, we are here to connect you with like-minded individuals and provide an exciting platform to explore and celebrate technology.
HackathonsWe've hosted large-scale hackathons, one of which was in collaboration with IBM professionals, who served as mentors and judges throughout the event. The event was designed to accommodate a wide range of skill sets, making it accessible and beneficial to everyone in attendance! Due to its popularity, the event quickly reached capacity, with all tickets—offered free of charge—being claimed. Participants had three days to develop a project in teams of six, culminating in a professional presentation of their work and an awards evening. |

The evening featured a carefully curated program that included a formal dinner, followed by entertainment and social activities.
