[Asis-l] Fwd: Syracuse University open online data science course

[John David Ross]

Dear colleagues,

The iSchool at Syracuse University is offering an open online course, Introduction to Data Science. Check it out here<http://ischool.syr.edu/future/cas/introtodatascience.aspx>!

Get a taste of what comprises this emerging science and an understanding of what it means to work in what Harvard Business Review called the sexiest job of the 21st century, the data scientist. Using Dr. Jeffrey Stanton’s eBook, An Introduction to Data Science as a guide, participants will ramp up on the most popular open source data science tool, the R open source statistical analysis and visualization system.

This opportunity is free of charge and begins in late February, lasting four weeks. Enrollment in this open online course will be limited to 500 students to ensure a high quality experience for all.

Learn more about the Certificate of Advanced Study (CAS) in Data Science<http://ischool.syr.edu/datascience> and other iSchool programs<http://ischool.syr.edu/future/Default.aspx>.

Best,
Erin
