CAUSE (Consortium for the Advancement of Undergraduate Statistics Education) and the American Statistical Association are happy to announce the seventh annual undergraduate statistics project competition (USPROC). Project submission for the May 31, 2016 deadline is now open! Cash prizes and an invitation to give a plenary talk at the annual electronic undergraduate statistics conference for all winners. Learn more here: www.causeweb.org/usproc

Think about your students this semester in all levels of statistics courses, as well as summer and independent research students. Competition tracks for all student levels are available.

The purpose of USPROC is to encourage the development of data analysis skills, to enhance presentation skills, and to recognize outstanding work by undergraduate statistics students.

There are two main categories for submissions to the competition.

Save the date of October 21, 2016 for the second annual electronic undergraduate statistics conference where winners will present and all students will have the opportunity to give an e-poster about their project.
