During the last semester of the Data Analytics Program (DANA), **students collaborate in teams of approximately three or four,** working with an external capstone partner and a DANA mentor to solve real-world challenges faced by the partner organization using data science and analytics. Participation in the capstone program is **free for partner organizations**, but requires a dedicated point of contact who can meet regularly with students and provide ongoing guidance.
