Join the DataFest Germany on March, 28-30, 2025, a 48-hour competition challenging teams of students to analyze complex datasets.
The DataFest is a student competition for data analysis ("hackathon") in which bachelor and master students of all disciplines can participate. In teams of 2-5 people, you will analyze a large and complex data set over a weekend with the aim of gaining the best insights.
The DataFest offers you the opportunity to analyze data with your own creative ideas, get in touch with experts from industry and academia, and compete with other students for prizes, fame, and honor. Food and drinks will be provided throughout the weekend!
The event is hosted by the Social Data Science and AI Lab (SODA) of our PI Frauke Kreuter in collaboration with the School of Social Sciences at the University of Mannheim.
