Project description - educational potential
We believe that interesting and impactful research and education conducted by world-class interdisciplinary scholars like you presents unique educational opportunities for students. Students are motivated to learn not just data science skills, but also develop subject-matter expertise and collaboration skills. Projects that offer learning opportunities often attract more interest.
We also connect active research projects at Columbia to students in relevant courses in Data Science, where multiple teams of capable students use their creative energy to tackle a common open-ended problem, under the guidance of the course instructor.
