Invitation for Summer Datathon and Terminal for Computer Science Students

 

 Summer Invitational Datathon

Datathon is a data science competition series similar to hackathons. Teams of students receive complex datasets, then analyze them, use real-world findings, and prepare a report of their discoveries to a panel of judges. These events are open to undergraduates, with specific concentration in data science and machine learning.

When: July 24 - 31

Where: Virtual

Who: First-year and second-year undergraduate students

Prizes: $15,000 + recruiting/networking opportunities with Citadel and Citadel Securities

GSA SPARK 2020

  GSA SPARK Join us in the fight against SPARK!   In GSA Capital’s boardroom sits SPARK — a decades-old blade server, entombed forever in acrylic to be displayed as a proud reminder of GSA’s journey.   SPARK was an invaluable step toward the sophisticated algorithms in use today, but was retired from active trading and destined never to be booted up again.    But last night, through a series of unfortunate errors, the server was reconnected to GSA’s internal network. In the decades spent sitting on the boardroom shelf its algorithms have warped beyond recognition. SPARK now has a conscience of its own...   Compete to win prizes! Compete with other students in a race to shut SPARK down before it finds a way to dominate every electronic trading market in the world.   For 21 days a range of exciting daily prizes will be on offer to those brave enough to take on SPARK in a series of fiendishly difficult challenges. The contestant deemed to have been most i...
