About the event

What is SDS?

The main goal of this event is to encourage students to explore real-world scientific challenges through research, collaboration, critical thinking, and innovation.

Students work in teams and use data science tools not as the primary subject, but as a means to collect, analyze, visualize, and improve their scientific ideas.

Opportunity to:

  • Explore important scientific issues
  • Identify meaningful patterns and correlations
  • Develop research-based ideas
  • Practice analytical thinking
  • Gain experience in collaboration and presentation
