Students gain hands-on experience by assisting PhD researchers on real-life data science projects, overseen by university professors and industry professionals, and have the opportunity to present their work at a symposium.
The Coding School's Summer Research Program with Columbia University is a five-week virtual research and internship initiative designed for high school students (grades 10-12 and recent graduates) to develop advanced knowledge and practical research skills in data science. The program aims to bridge theoretical concepts with real-world applications, allowing students to contribute to meaningful research projects. The first two weeks provide intensive training in data science theory and research skills, including the programming language R, data visualizations, data analysis, web scraping, data cleaning and wrangling, and research protocol. In the subsequent three weeks, students join research teams with PhD researchers and apply their newly acquired skills to real-life research projects, collaborating with faculty and industry professionals. Students will develop a research project and presentation, which can be showcased in college applications. The program emphasizes hands-on experience, mentorship, and networking opportunities with experts, faculty, and peers from Columbia University and beyond.
A typical day involves intensive training in data science theory and skills during the first two weeks, followed by collaborative research with PhD researchers on real-life projects in the subsequent three weeks.
This program is ideal for high school students serious about data science and its applications, seeking rigorous academic training, practical experience, and mentorship to prepare for higher education and beyond.
