Judges
The goal of ASA DataFest at Kansas State University is to give undergraduate students a fun, rewarding experience that builds their analytical skills and boosts their confidence tackling real‑world problems. To help accomplish this, we seek judges from campus and industry to help evaluate team projects and provide informal feedback to student teams.
Teams will have five minutes and three slides to make their case. Judges will be provided a rubric and are encouraged to take notes to assist with the awards deliberations. The student presentation and judging schedule is:
12:30 p.m. - Judges Arrive
1:00 p.m. - 2:30 p.m. Team Presentations
2:30 p.m. - 3:00 p.m. Judge Deliberations
3:00 p.m. - 4:00 p.m. Awards Ceremony
Judges should arrive at the event venue no later than 12:30 p.m. on Sunday. If you want to visit with the teams and Consultants, or enjoy some food, please arrive a little earlier. The event should conclude no later than 4:00 p.m.
All teams will receive a Certificate of Participation. There will also be awards for a variety of categories, including "Best in Show", "Best Insight", "Best Visualization" and the "Judges Pick".
