Visualization Lab at Price Science Commons Skills in data analysis, coding, statistics, and machine learning are increasingly in demand, and are integrated into courses across the University of Oregon’s campus. This means on the one hand that data science skills are being taught everywhere, and on the other hand that you might not notice that a class that meets your needs is available in another department or school at UO. One of the goals of this blog is to give more cross-department visibility to the many opportunities to build your data science skills across campus, and we begin by sharing this list of classes offered in the last few years at UO. Clay Small, Research Assistant Professor and Interim Graduate Program Coordinator for the UO Data Science Initiative, kindly shared an initial list of courses that fit this description, to which we have added a few more. Caveat emptor: this is a list of courses that have been offered in the past; courses change all the time. If you know of other courses that have been left of the list, know that a course is no longer being offered, want to add a link to a course website, or have a new UO data or stats resource to share, please email us at DataServices@uoregon.edu.
