Abstract

The Sewanee DataLab program makes the power of data analytics accessible for the greater good. We accomplish this by training and supporting a new generation of data scientists who work exclusively on social impact projects. The Sewanee DataLab seeks to expand the definition of data science and what it means to be a data scientist by training undergraduate students, academics, and professionals from a wide range of disciplines. Sewanee DataLab participants learn to understand and use data equitably to benefit those they serve.
