Hackathon format & key facts
Organized detailsOverview
UnivaBio is a global online student hackathon for ages 13+ focused on building technology that makes healthcare smarter, earlier and more accessible. Devpost currently lists the submission deadline as 6 October 2026 at 11:45 PM EDT.
Complete hackathon details
Projects must create a novel healthcare-technology solution and demonstrate working problem-solving capability. The authorized Devpost overview currently displays a cash-prize total, while the rules page still says prizes are TBD; because those authorized pages conflict, no prize amount is structured or claimed in this record. The event is public and online, with companies and professional organizations excluded from participation.
Eligibility requirements
Students aged 13+ in eligible countries and territories may participate under the official rules. Companies and professional organizations are excluded; standard jurisdiction exceptions apply.
Tips for this hackathon
Practical Job and Scholarship guidance. These tips do not replace official rules or create new eligibility requirements.
- Read the rules, eligibility, judging criteria, required technologies and intellectual-property terms before forming your submission plan.
- Build a complementary team early and assign product, engineering, design, research and presentation responsibilities clearly.
- Optimize for the published judging rubric: demonstrate a real problem, working solution, measurable impact and a concise live demo.
- Prepare the repository, pitch deck, demo video and submission links before the final hours so upload or platform problems do not invalidate the entry.
- Check whether travel, finalist presentations, team-size limits or mandatory attendance apply before committing.
Verification notes
Verified on the authorized Devpost overview and rules pages. Deadline is 6 October 2026 at 11:45 PM EDT; participation is online, public and limited to students aged 13+. Devpost's overview and rules currently conflict on prize status, so no prize value is asserted.
Job and Scholarship is the discovery and verification layer. Confirm eligibility, dates, salary/funding and application instructions on the original source before submitting anything.
