10/8 UConn Sports Analytics Symposium (UCSA) 2022

UConn Sports Analytics Symposium (UCSA) 2022

Saturday, October 8th, 2022

12:00 AM - 11:59 PM

Storrs Campus
McHugh Hall 102

The UCSAS is coming back in-person on Saturday, Oct. 8, 2022.

The demand for data scientists has grown rapidly over the last decade and this trend is projected to continue. There are, however, not enough highly qualified data scientists to meet the increasing demand. The talent shortfall extends to existing job classifications from the executive suite to frontline jobs---all of which are increasingly enabled by data analytics. The overarching goal of the UCSAS is to engage more students outside of traditional data science programs into data science through sports analytics.

While there are many well established sports analytics conferences, they are often not accessible to students due to technical level, cost, or space limitations. UConn, recognized nationally for its teams in sports such as basketball, baseball, and hockey, among others, hosts the UCSAS, which focuses specifically on undergraduate and graduate students who are interested in sports analytics. UCSAS, started in 2019 and organized by the Statistical Data Science Lab at UConn, aims to:

showcase sports analytics to students at an accessible level;
train students in data analytics with application to sports data; and
foster collaboration between academic programs and the sports industry.
