Johns Hopkins Engineering’s part-time and online students in the Engineering for Professionals program are invited to a town hall meeting hosted by Dean Ed Schlesinger.
At the Town Hall, the Dean will provide an update on the school and its major initiatives and priorities, and students will have the opportunity to ask questions about these and other topics and to share their thoughts on the school and where it is headed.
HopHacks is the biannual hackathon hosted at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland. For 36 hours students work in teams of up to four people, to bring a software or hardware idea to life. Last fall, we gathered more than 360 of the most creative and talented students from JHU, MIT, UMD, CMU, Rutgers, NYU, and many more. This fall, we expect to host even more students from institutions across the country. This February 16-18, we welcome you to join the HopHacks community.
