The Industry Connection Series features interactive “office hours” with mathematical scientists working in industry. The goal is to connect mathematical sciences students directly with industry members who can answer student-generated questions. Students at all levels are welcome and encouraged to attend and ask questions. The February and March events of the series have been a great success!
The next event is coming soon on Thursday May 27th, 2021, at 12pm PT/1pm MT/2pm CT/3pm ET. Industry panelists will be Mike Dairyko, Senior Manager of Data Science for the Milwaukee Brewers Baseball Club, and Chang-Hsin Lee, Staff Data Engineer for ezCater. The event will be moderated by Charlotte Eisenberg, Data Developer at Sports Reference, LLC. Register for the Zoom event here!
