"Through the application of data analytics, firms can uncover insights for data-driven decision making. Use case's span across a broad range of industries, assisting business strategy all over the world. A short introduction to the club curriculum in the 2023 fall semester has already improved my comprehension of programming languages such as python, and analytical concepts such as regression analysis, time series analysis, and econometrics. I've already begun applying these concepts to a consulting project uncovering data-driven insights for a private ATM management company. The data insights my team and I uncovered led to the creation of a paid position with the company investigating the elasticity of demand for surcharge transactions. If you love analysis, investigation, or the process of taking a data project from initiation to completion, I implore you to join our data analytics club!"
