The competition engages teams in the \u201cart and science of decision-making.\u201d Case studies challenge the teams to draw \u201cbusiness insight from a comprehensive analysis of relevant data.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI am so proud of their performance. Our students were flawless for the entire competition,\u201d said <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nicholls.edu\/business\/faculty\/dr-en-mao\/\">Dr. En Mao<\/a>, professor of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nicholls.edu\/business\/computer-information-systems\/\">CIS<\/a> and the team\u2019s faculty mentor. \u201cI did not ask them for perfection, but they delivered it. This is huge for our students and ÐÓ°É´«Ã½. It\u2019s a validation to the quality of the education they are receiving here.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ÐÓ°É´«Ã½ team includes Wendy Zhang, Sandesh Sharm and Casey Labat. This is ÐÓ°É´«Ã½\u2019 first year to compete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 2021 case study centered on creating homeownership and stability in New York City. The teams analyzed the data and summarized their findings in a poster and video. In the second round of the competition, the team presented to a panel of judges made up of data analytics professionals. Each round also included a question-and-answer session. Judges totaled points from each round to determine the winners.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Mao said the competition challenges the students\u2019 ability to analyze information and tell a story using their analysis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI saw tremendous growth in every aspect ranging from technical, leadership and social skills in all three students over three months,\u201d Dr. Mao said. \u201cTheir dedication, grit and commitment far exceed my expectations. These competitions speed up the learning process. The best outcome is that they appreciated this learning experience even though it was time-consuming.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Among the 28 competing teams were students from Ball State University, California State University in Bakersfield, Elon University, Kansas State University and the University of Notre Dame. Judges included educational and industry leaders in data analytics from across the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI always tell my students to believe they are getting a world-class education here at ÐÓ°É´«Ã½,\u201d Dr. Mao said. \u201cTheir educational experiences determine the value and the success level of their college careers. It\u2019s about seizing opportunities. I want to continue to build ÐÓ°É´«Ã½\u2019 competency in analytics and data literacy.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ÐÓ°É´«Ã½ CIS prepares students to enter innovative careers by teaching them technical and managerial skills and offering immersive hands-on experience. Aside from their coursework, CIS students experiment with installing and testing local area networks in a specialized computer networking laboratory. As the business world moves more toward a paperless society that requires data analyses, the demand for computer information systems graduates with experience increases.For more information on ÐÓ°É´«Ã½ CIS, visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nicholls.edu\/business\/computer-information-systems\">nicholls.edu\/business\/computer-information-systems<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: <\/strong>Thursday, June 17, 2021<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>MEDIA CONTACT: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nicholls.edu\/university-marketing\/staff\/jacob-batte\/\">Jacob Batte<\/a>, Media Relations and Publications Coordinator,&nbsp;985.448.4141 or jacob.batte@nicholls.edu<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>THIBODAUX, La. &#8212; A team of ÐÓ°É´«Ã½ students placed second in the 2021 Business Analytics Competition at Manhattan College.
