Mini HackSphere '25

Mini HackSphere '25 was a fast-paced programming competition organized by the IEEE Student Branch of the Informatics Institute of Technology. It was designed as a starting point for tech enthusiasts to build excitement for the main HackSphere '25 event and global competitions like IEEEXtreme.

The core of the event was a rigorous 6-hour coding sprint where participants had to push their technical limits. Students had to rely on quick thinking, problem-solving, and efficient coding to solve complex challenges under a strict time limit. It served as a great practice ground for undergraduates to improve their logic and prepare for more advanced hackathons.

After the coding competition, the organizers kept the momentum going by launching the main HackSphere '25 educational series. To help students build on the skills they tested during the event, the IEEE Student Branch hosted foundational learning sessions. This started with an introduction to data structures and algorithms workshop in early October 2025, ensuring the students gained lasting technical skills.
