The Data Science Club is the largest MathSoc club at UWaterloo. We host a variety of educational and networking events, such as ML Paper Reading Groups, Data Science Workshops (with WAT.AI), and company Q&A sessions.

This term on the development team, we created an entirely new membership system that allows paid club members to access an account with a unique QR-code, increasing the check-in efficiency at our larger events, such as the Beginning of Term social or our yearly Datathon.
