Coffee & Conversations
Get Involved
The Kansas Data Science Consortium seeks to engage students across the University of Kansas in conversations around careers in data science. These events are informal and social in nature. Information about opportunities at KU to enhance data science skills will be shared and speakers will share tips and stories about how they navigated entering data science as a career choice from diverse disciplinary backgrounds.
