More honors for NC State's Jenkins MBA program!  Jaideep Basak, Ryan Randall, Dena Simkus and Anjanie Kashidas took 1st place in the Teradata University Network Analytics Challenge.   There were 45 teams involved, five of which presented at the Teradata annual conference in Las Vegas earlier this month.

The NC State team's entry was based on their spring 2018 project in the Decision Analytics Practicum.  Kudos to the team and to David Baumer, their faculty advisor.
