Scholarship

The scholarship is now closed. A huge thanks to everyone for participating!

Amazon suggests what you should buy; Netflix suggests what you should watch; Google suggests what you should search; Facebook suggests who you should connect with. Recommendation algorithms are everywhere, and they are based on your online behavior. These algorithms are advancing at head-spinning speeds as more and more data is being collected.

Welcome to 365 Data Science 2019 scholarship competition!
