Operations and Analytics Club's First Year is a Success

The new Operations and Analytics Club on campus hosted educational forums, guest speakers and panels this past year, including the Female Leaders in Business Panel in spring 2022. 

The mission of the club, according to David Mahalak, faculty specialist in the KSOM Operations and Analytics Department and club co-moderator, is to educate students about the latest trends, content, internship and employment opportunities in the fields of business analytics and operations management. It's also to connect students with business leaders and alumni, discuss special topics/interests in the fields of business analytics and operations management and implement service for the local community.

"Over this academic year, we accomplished all the above," said Mahalak. "I realized there was a great opportunity to link the material we were learning in my STAT 251 class with creating an environment for students to relax, decompress, have fun, and connect with one another/faculty, and help our local community."

The club created and hosted its first-ever Casino Night at the end of the semester, for which the group collected non-perishable food items and toys that were donated to the CSSJ and distributed to the local community.
