IEEE Day is celebrated to commemorate the time when brilliant engineers worldwide gathered to share their
technical ideas in 1884. Every year, this fortunate day falls on 5 October 2021. The theme for IEEE day is

THEMES OF THE HACKATHON
Education

Healthcare
Healthcare always proved to be the most crucial aspect of a country's development. This pandemic was no different. That being said, under this theme, participants will have to think of solutions and implement them to revolutionize the modern healthcare system and solve real-world healthcare shortcomings.
Digital Accessibility
Digital accessibility is the process of making digital products accessible to everyone. It is about providing all users access to the same information, regardless of any impairments that they may have. Come up with ideas and implement them in ways that can help improve the lives of people with disabilities.
Environment
The effects of deterioration of the environment and the urgency to protect it have always been alarming issues. In these desperate times, we need solutions fast. Leverage technology and come up with solutions that can help us in creating a more sustainable future.
