The Codex Club, Quantum University, Roorkee, organized The Bridge Course – Hackathon on 7 August 2026 for first-year students of Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) and Computer Applications (CA). The event was designed to provide students with practical exposure to Python and HTML through a hands-on hackathon and quiz-based learning experience.

The event witnessed enthusiastic participation from 251 students, including 179 offline and 72 online participants. The programme was conducted at the Computer Labs and Unity Hall, providing students with an engaging environment to learn, experiment, and apply their technical knowledge.

The hackathon encouraged participants to put their basic programming and web development concepts into practice by developing innovative solutions and presenting their ideas. Students actively participated in coding, problem-solving, project development, quizzes, and presentations, gaining practical experience beyond the classroom.

Through the hands-on format, students had the opportunity to strengthen their understanding of Python and HTML while developing their logical thinking, creativity, and problem-solving abilities. The quiz-based activities further added an interactive element to the learning experience and encouraged students to test their conceptual understanding.
