ABOUT
The MinneAnalytics Student Showcase is an opportunity for students to get in front of our community of data science pros. Students submit a URL of a video presentation that we then share more broadly with professionals in industry for the purpose of exposure, mentoring, or jobs.
These undergrad or graduate presentations could be individual or team class projects, capstones, modified posters, or passion projects. Really anything, and any major, as long as it involves analytics or data science.
Select presentations will then be featured as the student showcase of the week on social media or featured in our newsletter. Some will be invited to reprise the presentations live in front of our community virtually or even live at one of our conferences.
Our community, having already demonstrated an eagerness to mentor students, will be encouraged to engage the students in mentorship or to hire them for permanent positions or internships.
