Honors Project Opportunity

Dr. Skorczewski from the Math, Stats, & Computer Science department is looking for an honors student to help perform some data analysis which could be counted as an Honors Project.
 

Downtown Menomonie businesses are looking to understand patterns in the foot traffic through downtown. Everything from the weather, day of the week, UW Stout Polytechnic events, and downtown events may impact foot traffic.

A possible honors project is to help Dr. Skorczewski perform some initial exploratory data analysis to identify any patterns and questions for more involved statistical analysis in the future.

Contact Dr. Skorczewski for more information and to see if you are a good fit for this project.
