Data Science Nights are monthly hack nights on popular data science topics, organized by Northwestern University graduate students and scholars. Each night will feature refreshments, a talk on data science techniques or applications, and a hacking night with data science projects or learning groups of your choice. Institutional support comes from the Northwestern Institute on Complex Systems (NICO) and the Northwestern Data Science Initiative.

ASPIRING, BEGINNING, AND ADVANCED DATA SCIENTISTS ARE WELCOME!
​
We want to promote data science and a personal and scientific exchange between various departments and disciplines. We hope to provide all participants who attend the chance to build a visible reputation by becoming an active member of the Northwestern community. If you would like to join our team of organizers or provide other support or suggestions, please reach out to us online or in person.
