Programs offered by Winfo

Winfo's Annual Hackathon
An annual hackathon that Winfo hosts to allow students to ideate and build their creations within a 12-hour time period.

Professional Networking Events
These events are opportunities for students to speak with experienced professionals in a more intimate environment.

Speaker Panels
Each speaker panel will have a theme which represents a certain career path or a general topic to provide students the opportunity to learn, ask questions, and provoke discussions.

Career Enhancing Workshops
The workshops are meant to teach students how to market themselves to employers. This may include resume/portfolio reviews, elevator pitches, salary negotiations, and building professional networking relationships.

Company Tours
Our company tours allow students to get a more in-depth insight into the company and environment their professionals work in.

General Meetings and Social Events
Networking with fellow peers is just as important as networking with professionals. At our general meetings, we create opportunities for students to meet each other and have thoughtful discussions about various topics.
