What are the seminars about?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Within the realm of data science and data analytics research, the topics are endless! Our seminars cover a variety of subjects and can be lecture-style or hands-on, technical workshops. For an idea of what to expect, browse our past seminars<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do I need to bring anything?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Not usually \u2014 but if there are any additional requirements of attendees (e.g., bring your own laptop for a machine learning demo), it will be indicated in the event listing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who are the speakers?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Our seminar speakers are some of the country’s most distinguished data science researchers and practitioners from academia and industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can I nominate a seminar speaker?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Absolutely! In fact, we encourage you to contact us if you, or someone you know, would be interested in participating in our seminar series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
