Empowering Future Female Tech Leaders - CodeCrush 2026
Murdoch University’s School of IT is proud to host CodeCrush 2026, an inspiring initiative designed to ignite passion for technology and empower young women to become future leaders in the digital world. CodeCrush was originally created by Professor Deepak Khazanchi at the University of Nebraska Omaha and we are excited to deliver our enhanced Perth edition once again.
Building on the success of last year’s program, CodeCrush brings together 30 female students in Years 8–9 and their teachers from across Western Australia for an unforgettable experience of learning, networking, and discovery.
