... I'm not much of a fan of hackathons and those kinds of competitions though, but some people are. Definitely meet people outside your field and find out where your interests intersect. You may be able to leverage your skills to help them and vice versa. This is also typically where the best (and most lucrative) projects to work on are.

That depends on what you're doing and what your goals are. Based on your post, I'm assuming you study CS? I think it's really important to find mentors and work with them as much as you can. Find projects that you're passionate about and contribute to them; not only will you meet (even if it's online) people who are passionate about the same things, but you'll be able to build up your resume/CV with experience working on things that people use. Working on Open Source projects will also help you find mentors; you'll read and learn from other peoples' code (continued...)
