This course is intended for juniors and seniors in the Data Science/MCS major and it offers students an opportunity to engage with the campus data science community in its various activities of research, support of data driven decision making, education and communication. By taking part in these, students revisit what they learned through their college career and mature a personal understanding of data science. The course is equivalent to one unit of academic work done throughout the year. It involves attending and actively engaging with events (e.g. round tables, alumni panels, workshops, and technical seminars), participating in data science consultations, and reflecting on the undergraduate experience through meeting with a mentor and developing a portfolio. Workshops, seminars, and data science consultations are chosen among a variety of options to reflect the students' interests. Participation is tracked through a Canvas site throughout one academic year. Students enroll for 1 unit during the Spring semester, when they are also required to attend class meetings. This course satisfies the Capstone Requirement of the Bachelor of Science in Data Science if taken after or concurrently with DATASCI120 "Data Narratives."
