For our final event of the year, relax and unwind with a board game night.

The first lecture of the secret third MCS module, delivered by a Maths student for extra pizzaz!

It’s the HackSoc Annual General Meeting! Elect your committee for next year! Trudge through endless sh*tpost nominations/amendments! Very thrilling!

Join us for our Esoteric Languages workshop, and learn about what it means to be a programming language!

Interested in getting started with cybersecurity? Attend a talk with Xavier Carpent, a lecturer specialising in Cyber Security and with a specialisation in applied cryptography and authentication. In this event, Xavier will give an overview of a set of protocols called Private Set Intersection (PSI). Some constructions, use cases, and open research questions will be explored. The canonical PSI protocol allows two parties (both with their own set of elements) to interact in a way that one party learns the intersection of the sets and nothing else (and the other party learns nothing).

If you would like to learn this wonderful language join us where we’ll teach you what makes C++ unique as a language, how to get started and some cool features such as functional patterns and smart pointers. As well we’ll briefly see other languages that have come out with the intent of improving upon C and C++.

Think you know a lot about hacking, socking, and HackSoc? Test your knowledge via Kahoot at the HackSoc trivia night!

Another edition of cafe crawl. We will be stopping at Elena’s Patisserie and Coffee Lounge, 200 Degrees (Flying Horse Walk), Public and CocoTang. Hope to see you there.

We will be catching the 09:29am tram from the University of Nottingham stop to see the final resting place of Ada Lovelace (the world’s first programmer)! This event is a colaboration with the Women in Computer Science society.

Not one, but TWO workshops all about getting started with game development in Unity! Coming to a Jubilee Campus building near you soon! In the first workshop, we focused on game design and mechanics. Now, we learn about implementing them in Unity. Always wanted to learn how to take your ideas from just a thought to a fully fledged system? Now’s your chance!
