About CBC

A student AI builder club at McGill.

We help members turn ideas into real products with modern tools, mentorship, and community support.

Backed by Anthropic

A global initiative

Claude Builder Clubs are part of Anthropic’s Claude Campus Program — a network of student-led chapters at universities around the world. The program spans 60+ schools with over 15,000 students enrolled globally.

Each chapter is student-run and officially Anthropic-backed. Anthropic gives us free Claude Pro access and API credits, and the support needed to run AI tools and fluency workshops, hackathons, and demo days on campuses.
