| Description: This seminar provides an opportunity for students from all disciplines to do guided research using data science tools in a research project of their choice. Students will develop an understanding of the full pipeline of successful data science research by selecting a topic, identifying relevant datasets, designing research methods, conducting in-depth analyses, deriving meaningful conclusions, and submitting a final report. Opportunities for students to present their work and review journal articles create a scaffolded approach. Past project topics include geology, music, demographics, art, economics, government, religion, transportation, and law. |
