    Dear Data Science Colleagues,

    (Apologies for cross-posting!)

    We are recruiting mentors for our 2023 Community College DataFest Pilot. 

     

    Our event will be held virtually the weekend of April 14-16.   

     

    Mentors would provide statistical, computational, and/or application-specific guidance during the competition as needed.   We know that students would be excited to work with experienced industry professionals. We are only asking our mentors to be available for one scheduled office hour and any additional contact by mutual arrangment, and it's even easier to be a part of our DataFest since the competition is held virtually.  Each mentor would be assigned one or two teams to work with.  The format and amount of consultation would depend on your availability and team need. 

     

    We hope you can help us nurture future data scientists through helping with this Community College DataFest Pilot Program.  To sign up to be a mentor, please use this form

     

    If you have any questions or for more information, please contact us.
