"The Data Science Mentorship Circles program has been one of the most beneficial experiences I have had in graduate school. Receiving mentorship from BU (Bio)Statistics alumnus ensured that career advice and guidance was tailored precisely to my experiences and training. In this way, the interactions with my mentor consistently addressed challenges I was facing while beginning a career in Data Science. This program underscores BU's continued dedication to its students beyond the traditional classroom environment."
