Corporate Relations Committee
Why do we choose to go to university? For some people, the answer is gaining the skills to acquire a nice, high-paying job in the future. For others, the answer is to enjoy independence and university life. The Corporate Relations Committee helps with both!
We aim to create strong bonds between our guild and companies that are looking for Data Science talent, while at the same time, raising funds for guild events through sponsorships and collaborations. Join us if you want to make a positive impact across the guild, and raise our guild to greater heights!
