About BAS & Core Curriculum!

 Hi everyone! 

Thank you so much for being a part of the Business Analytics Society! We are delighted to have you join this community and explore the world of analytics. 

For some background - 

Business Analytics Society is currently in its second year on campus and was started only last fall. Since then, the group has grown to more than 50 active members! We host two distinct meeting types - our speaker events and technical workshops. Our speaker events allow members to meet with industry professionals, learn about their careers, and ask any questions they may have. Our technical workshops, hosted by our two Directors of Analytics, grant members the ability to receive introduction-level training in a wide range of tools often used in the analytics sphere. 

In this core curriculum, we encourage you to use the resources to improve both your soft and technical skills. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to any one of the executive board members.
