The second annual Women in Data Science (WiDS) at Purdue University is set for Monday, March 4 in the Burton D. Morgan Center for Entrepreneurship in Discovery Park.

WiDS (Greater Lafayette @ Purdue) is an independent event organized by Anna Subramaniam and Dimple Dhawan to coincide with the annual Global Women in Data Science (WiDS) Conference held at Stanford University and an estimated 150+ locations worldwide. All genders are invited to attend WiDS regional events, which features outstanding women doing outstanding work.

The daylong conference is set from 8 a.m.-5 p.m. in Morgan (MRGN) 121 and is open free to Purdue University students, faculty, staff, and individuals in industry who work in data science. Registration is required. Breakfast, lunch, and a networking reception will be available (please list any dietary restrictions via the registration form).

This year, we have an exciting lineup of keynote, talks by distinguished faculty and industry experts, a workshop session on data visualization, a panel discussion on Data Ethics, and poster presentations by students. In conjunction with dozens of other WiDS events worldwide, we will livestream some of the Stanford events, which, hopefully, will make for a unique and collaborative conference experience. Thanks to the generous support of our sponsors, we are able to organize this free event to our community here at Purdue.
