Engage with Yahoo!
Everyone knows Yahoo! began with a Big Idea. And we haven’t stopped inventing and reinventing since. We’re #1 or #2 in 23 different product categories—and have big plans to make that number jump even higher.
So it's no wonder we have a vested interest in the next generation of big thinkers. We've designed programs that let you get creative and push your skills to new heights.

University Hack Day
Yahoo! University Hack Day is a festival of hacking, innovation and good times. It starts with a week of tech talks, hack tips, lessons and hands-on workshops where you’ll learn about cutting-edge technology from some of the biggest web experts on the planet.
The week culminates with our University Hack Day competition. You’ll get access to tons of APIs and exclusive Yahoo! developer tools. Be creative and develop something that will change the Internet experience for millions of users—and then in a 90 second presentation (no kidding) show us your fantastic hack.
