The American Statistical Association DataFest is a celebration of data in which undergraduate student teams work during a three-day weekend to find and share meaning in a large, rich and complex dataset.

Students compete in teams of three to five. You may form your own team prior to the event, or you may ask to be placed on a team. We encourage you to create teams of individuals from different disciplines because you will benefit from having team members of diverse backgrounds and skills. Final projects are limited to two to three slides, so make your content count.

Graduate students may not compete in the event but are encouraged to sign up as mentors if interested. 

Each individual participating in the ASA DataFest at NC State must submit a registration form. If you form your own team, you may include each member of your team, including the team name on the form. If you have not formed a team, you will have the chance on the registration form to request placement on a team. Registration is limited to the first 50 people, Students, teams and mentors must register by March 28.
