Wust and Blaine to teach at “Data Matters”

Markus Wust and Alison Blaine will be teaching a course in "Collecting, Classifying, and Analyzing Textual Data" at the upcoming “Data Matters: Data Science Short Course Series,” to be held August 7-11 at the Hunt Library.

Data Matters is a program of the Data Science Initiative at NC State in partnership with the Odum Institute for Research in Social Science at UNC-Chapel Hill and the National Consortium for Data Science (NCDS). The Data Matters series is for faculty, staff, students, researchers and others who wish to increase their skills in data analytics and integrate data science methods into their research designs and skillsets. Scholars, analysts, and researchers from all disciplines and industries are welcome. Both one- and two-day courses will be offered; participants are welcome to register for one, two, or three classes.

As a result of the Libraries’ contribution to Data Matters, DSI Program Manager Jamie Roseborough has offered to waive registration for a handful of library staff members. Take advantage of this great development opportunity! Libraries attendees include: Jesse Lopez, Cynthia Levine, Lynn Whittenberger, Debbie Currie, Darby Orcutt, and Christopher Erdmann.
