Wharton Moneyball Academy: Training Camp is a one-week, online program broadly introducing students to statistics through a sports lens. Hosted by the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania and the Wharton Sports Analytics and Business Initiative (WSABI), the Wharton Moneyball Academy: Training Camp welcomes talented students intrigued by statistics. Students applying to this program should have strong math skills and an interest in sports.
The summer experience serves as an entrée into the sports statistics world as it is not heavily focused on computing but rather the fundamental principles of sports statistics. Wharton Professor Adi Wyner and guest faculty in conjunction with PhD students teach the program.
Following the completion of the Moneyball Academy: Training Camp, many students go on to attend a future session of the three-week Moneyball Academy for a deeper dive into sports analytics.
All participants who successfully complete the program will earn a Wharton Global Youth Certificate of Completion.
