What Is UNC Charlotte Saturday Data Science Academy?
This hybrid Fall 2026 academy introduces up to 25 students in grades 9-12 to data analysis, visualization, statistics and machine learning through direct teaching, real-world problems, team projects, guest speakers and a final showcase. Registration opened April 13 and closed June 30, 2026 or earlier if capacity was reached; there is no evidence that late registration is available.
The official page lists six in-person Saturdays—September 12 and 19, October 10 and 17, and November 7 and 21—from 8:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m. at UNC Charlotte's Woodward Building, plus virtual Thursdays September 24 and December 3 from 6:30-8:00 p.m. It inconsistently calls the offering five Saturdays in one heading but six elsewhere; the six explicit dates control pending confirmation.
