This event is open to undergraduate students from the University of Maryland.
PlaceHack challenges student teams to rethink a place-based problem in College Park or on UMD’s campus—an underused space, a dangerous intersection, a parking lot—and conceive something new. Creativity, teamwork and pizza collide to inspire great spaces@UMD and win cash prizes!
In Partnership with the Office of Belonging and Community, this year’s challenge is accessibility. Your team will envision a classroom space that is engaging, supportive and open to everyone! The 24-hour challenge takes place Friday, February 6 - Saturday, February 7, 2026.
