About data science

Data science lies at the intersection of statistics, computer science, and domain-specific applications.

The field of data science draws on statistics and computer science to address questions in various domains, such as biology, education, physics, business, linguistics, or medicine. The University Libraries can provide resources for getting started with data science and help connect researchers and scholars with tools and other experts in data science.
