The program was built through ODEI Northeastern Faculty Innovations in Diversity and Academic Excellence Grant. The main objective is to instill knowledge, confidence, and passion about data analytics among high school students from traditionally underrepresented minorities and motivate them to pursue career paths and educational opportunities in Data Analytics (DA). By introducing Storytelling with Data to students of color and encouraging them to follow DA career, we aim to offer technical applied skills and empower them, while at the same time developing stronger ties and deepening our commitment and engagement with Northeastern University’s local community.
