Club Mission

The Wharton Undergraduate Data Analytics Club enables Penn undergraduates to develop a passion for analytics and gives these analytically inclined students a community of like-minded individuals.

1) Apply for Analytics 101 or Analytics 201: In Fall 2025, we will be accepting applications for our two workshops: 101 and 201.

Analytics 101: an introductory program to break into data science, covering topics in exploratory data analysis, probability/statistics, data pre-processing and visualization, and machine learning and deep learning methods.

Analytics 201: work in teams to analyze and build models for a company on a real-world data analytics project collaboration that spans the semester.

2) Join committees: In Fall 2025, we will be accepting applications for our Events (organizes club-wide socials, and Education committees. Applications will be followed by one round of interviews.

Hi! Since we have limited spots in our 201 cohorts, you would have to re-apply. But we definitely keep in mind if you have gone through 101!

Question: What does the Education committee do? - Anonymous

The Education Committee is responsible for teaching the Analytics 101 and 201 sessions on a weekly basis, including putting together the content and teaching the live workshop session. Usually there are enough members of the committee that you can alternate weeks (i.e. it's unlikely that you would have to teach sessions for several consecutive weeks, unless you want to do so). We also intend for the committee to be able to discuss topics of interest in machine learning and data science, and teach each other something new about recent developments in the space!

Question: What is the time commitment like for WUDAC? On what days and times do club members meet? - Anonymous

The time committment for non-committee members is typically 1.5 hours a week (the length of an Analytics 101 or 201 session) and this usually meets Tuesdays or Thursdays. The time committment for the committees is likely a bit more (1-2 hours) and varies depending on if you are on Events or Education.

Question: The application description on Penn Clubs claims that we can apply to up to two committees by saving the submission for one committee and then selecting a new committee. However, at the bottom of the application near the submit button, it states that "Feel free to submit multiple times, only your most recent submissions will be shared with the club application reviewers." Could you please let me know if you will receive my application to both committees despite this message? - Anonymous

Yes! Both applications will be visible to us. If you submit, for example, a marketing and events application, we will see both responses. However, if you submit another marketing application again, it will overwrite your previous marketing responses.

Question: Besides signing up for the listserv, is there anything else we have to do to become a GBM? Also, will the analytics 101/201 course be taught this semester for students who would like to learn? - Anonymous

Nope, that's it! The listserv is where we will post weekly updates of our upcoming events and you can attend those when you can. Analytics 101 will also be taught this semester in both Python and R. We'll send out more information soon about when/where the sessions will take place on our listserv!

Question: I was wondering what the Marketing Committee was in charge of and what skill sets are needed to apply for that committee? - Anonymous

The marketing committee is in charge of promoting the club to the Penn community. We distribute marketing materials and promote our club events through social media, email, and our website. The main skills required for this club are design skills-- if you have an eye for aesthetics but don't have graphic design experience, you'll have an opportunity to learn in this committee! Other helpful skills are interest/experience with social media, website design, and analytics. If you'd like to send me examples of past designs (flyers, posters, facebook covers, powerpoints, drawings, paintings, etc) you've created, please email them to whartonudac@gmail.com!
