About the role
Overview
Read – Research – Build – Pitch
Presented by: IEEE Computer Society (NHCE Student Branch Chapter) & Department of Computer & Information Science and Engineering, New Horizon College of Engineering
About the Event:
Bridge the gap between academic theory and real-world engineering at CYBERSCAPE. Unlike conventional hackathons that start from a blank slate, Cyberscape challenges innovators to take an existing research paper and transform its concepts into a functional, working prototype.
Over two action-packed days of intense building and Shark Tank-style pitching, participants will dissect cutting-edge research, engineer tangible solutions, and defend their prototypes before a panel of industry experts.
Key Highlights:
-
Research-to-Prototype Format: Pick a real research paper and bring its methodology or findings to life as a working prototype. -
Shark Tank Pitching: Present your solution in a high-stakes 7-minute pitch followed by a live Q&A session with a panel of expert "Sharks". -
2-Day Sprint: Kick off at 9:00 AM for a complete, immersive experience of rapid prototyping, problem-solving, and pitching. -
Recognition & Awards: Compete for special awards recognizing excellence in Innovation, Prototype Execution, and Social Impact.
Domains & Tracks:
Participants can select research papers and build prototypes across (but not limited to) the following domains:
-
Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning (AI/ML)
-
Generative AI
-
Computer Vision & Natural Language Processing (NLP)
-
Cybersecurity & Blockchain
-
Cloud Computing & Data Science
-
Internet of Things (IoT) & Robotics
-
And more!
