AI Community Datathon Opening Ceremony

Event Description

The AI Community at Stony Brook University is proud to announce Datathon 2026.

Dive into data analysis and AI/ML, and get ready to build something big. In this year's underwater-themed event, enjoy a weekend of data analysis, hacking, networking, fun activities, and minigames.

Whether you're a seasoned developer, data scientist, designer, or completely new to hacking, this event is your chance to collaborate, learn data science, and create something impactful with data and AI/ML.

What is Datathon?

AI Community's Datathon is the premier data science competition at Stony Brook University, bringing together students of all skill levels for a weekend of data exploration, analysis, and innovation. Just like a typical hackathon, you will be using your skills to build your dream project.

Unlike a regular hackathon, Datathon is focused on data science. You will be given a set of data to work with, analyze, and apply to your project. You can also find your own data to use. Your project will be presented to a panel of judges consisting of professors and industry professionals!
