New Quarter, New Opportunities! 

Despite moving online for spring quarter, SOMA is excited to present new ways to bring forth programming to exercise your strategy & operations expertise! Upcoming, we have an upcoming SOMA Hack-a-thon, and Data Science workshops to learn R and to practice data visualization and data wrangling!

Club Events

SOMA Hack-A-Thon, April 17th!

The SOMA Hack-A-Thon will be moving forward virtually, so keep saving the date! There is no time like social-distancing to re-invest in yourself and your skills to make sure that you are the standout candidate in your next interview. Have you always said you would master Tableau and R so that you resume was maybe a little more honest? Now is the time!
