Professor John Denero will give a talk and answer questions about the new Data Science Undergraduate Education Program. In spring 2016, UC Berkeley will officially launch the Foundations of Data Science course, a course jointly developed and offered by Computer Science, Statistics, and the School of Information. In conjunction with the Foundations of Data Science course, there will be a series of connector courses that will allow students to explore data science from fields as diverse as cognitive science, history, literature, engineering, ecology, and beyond.
