WattHack is a 2-day engineering hackathon in which students are tasked to upcycle e-waste into new, creative electronics projects. Students compete in teams of 4-5, and all faculties are encouraged to join.

The hardware hackathon is taking place at the Telstra Creator Space and is open to students from all experience levels, and guidance will be provided.


WattHack 2021 saw $600+ in prize money to the teams, after having their presentations judged by a panel of industry representatives from CSIRO and the Australian Defence Force. The representatives also hovered around the teams, mentoring them and giving feedback. The teams came up with creative and brilliant devices for the problems they identified as well as entertaining presentations.
