Adventures in Data Science is back in Winter 2023! DataLab directors Carl Stahmer and Pamela Reynolds will teach the first course in a two-part series offering a hands-on introduction to data science for social science and humanities undergraduates.
This first course (Winter 2023) focuses on acquiring the skills necessary for performing data-driven, interdisciplinary research and is the first course in a challenging two-quarter series. Combined, the two-quarter honors/elective series introduces students to the basics of computer programming and data analysis using the R programming language and provides hands-on exposure to the core skills needed to work in interdisciplinary, team-science settings.
Prerequisite(s): Students must have declared or are intending to declare a traditionally non-computational major and/or minor. Students from the social sciences, humanities, and arts will receive priority; students in the life sciences and similar traditionally non-computational majors are also eligible to participate. Undergraduate and graduate students from outside the University Honors Program can enroll with instructor permission.
