Business Analytics - Stories from the World of Work

Co-hosted by the McIntire School's Center for Business Analytics and Commerce Career Services, the Business Analytics event features a diverse group of alumni and industry leaders, ranging from recent alumni to C-suite executives and analytics thought leaders, who share insightful stories from their career journey to date, describe "a day in the life" at their workplace, and inspire students to study and pursue careers that embrace and center around business analytics.

The half-day program kicks off with a keynote discussion, followed by concurrent breakout panels, during which students gain insight into a variety of industries, organizations, and career opportunities across the field of business analytics. The event concludes with a networking reception and light refreshments, open only to speakers and registered students.

CBA anticipates hosting this annual event on the third Friday in September. Watch this space for more details and a registration link mid-summer 2023.
