A one day conference aimed at encouraging undergraduate students from historically underrepresented groups (African American, Hispanic, Native Americans) to consider careers and graduate studies in the statistical and data sciences. It includes presentations from established professionals, academic leaders, and current graduate students that will help attendees understand the opportunities and routes for success in the field. Many opportunities for networking will be created. Attendees are also encouraged to submit poster presentations. Panel forums provide information and tips for a rewarding graduate student experience, achieving success as an academic statistician or data scientist, and opportunities in the private and government arenas, among other topics.
