    To all faculty teaching analytics to undergraduate students:
    Registration for the sixth annual Business Analytics Competition at Manhattan College (BAC@MC 2020) is now open. Data for phase of the competition will be shared with registered teams on February 3rd. Faculty advisors do not need to register their students at this point, you have until April to choose whom you will bring to New York City to participate in the event. While registration remains open until March 13th, the earlier you register, the more time your team will have to analyze the competition data!

    About BAC@MC:
    Every May, Manhattan College hosts a Business Analytics Competition
    , an exciting opportunity for Analytics majors or related fields to test their knowledge and hone their skills. Competing teams (of 2 to 4 undergraduate students supervised by a faculty advisor) engage in the "art & science" of decision-making as well as practice their ability to draw business insight from a comprehensive analysis of relevant data. To learn more about BAC@MC, check out the competition website, or read an article recently published in ORMS Today.
