About This Guide

This guide provides resources related to data science.

The guide is designed primarily for undergraduate students majoring or minoring in Data Science. However, anyone interested in aspects of data science - from working with Python and R, to finding and cleaning data, to visualizing results - may find it useful.

Just as data science is ever changing, this guide will be updated regularly to reflect new tools, packages, tutorials, and data science examples. If you think anything important is missing from this guide, please email the Data Science Librarian.

You may choose among broad subject areas (e.g., biology, art, political science, etc.), as well as interdisciplinary databases or ones that search across multiple disciplines.
