Data analysis involves inspecting, cleaning, transforming, and (often) computationally modeling data to find information and trends within a dataset, and inform decision-making and lend insight towards hypotheses. Data analysis helps us turn data into meaningful information about the objects represented through the data.
CMU Libraries provides individualized training and group workshops to dozens of useful data analysis tools! Check out our list of (free!) workshops each semester that are open to anyone in the CMU community:
