In the fall of each year the CMS organizes
StatFest, a one day conference aimed at encouraging undergraduate students from historically under-represented groups to consider careers and graduate studies in the statistical sciences. The program typically includes presentations from established professionals, academic leaders, and current graduate students that will help attendees understand the opportunities and routes for success in the field.
We are excited to announce this year's event will be held in Chicago, IL. Planning is underway and further developments will be posted
here in the near future.
