There is currently a data science minor in development led by Dr. Fran Bailey and Dr. Smiljana Petrovic of the computer science department, and a working group, “Data Science for Future Presidents,” which is a collaboration between Dr. Benjamin Gaines (Mathematics), Dr. Sunghee Lee (Chemistry), Dr. Petrovic (Computer Science), Dr. Nora Slonimsky (History/ITPS), and Dr. Jeanne Zaino (Political Science).
All these talks are recorded and available at the Iona computer science website. For a talk that addressed digital humanities more specifically, please see the session with Dr. Lauren Klein.
