Data Science Bootcamp

The Critical Language Scholarship (CLS) is a fully funded program sponsored by the U.S. Department of State that gives undergraduate and graduate students the opportunity to participate in intensive language learning and cultural immersion abroad.

This virtual workshop introduces participants to the basics of creating clear and effective data visualizations in Stata. Through demonstrations, example code, and hands-on exercises, participants will learn how to prepare data for visualization, create and customize common figures (including bar graphs, scatterplots, and other commonly used visualizations), and communicate findings through well-designed figures. The workshop will use Stata to demonstrate visualization techniques, but the principles for choosing, preparing, and effectively presenting visualizations are applicable across other statistical programs. This workshop is intended for students, researchers, and anyone who works with data and wants to improve their ability to present results visually. Basic familiarity with Stata is encouraged, but not required.
