Hi all!
I was wondering if you guys know of any Data Science/Statistics/Computer Science/ Comp. Bio. Summer programs/internships/research opportunities that I can participate in the summer before 11th grade.
I taught myself programming, machine learning, linear algebra, basic statistics, and basic bioinformatics. Do you know any reputable summer opportunities that will help me pursue further accomplishments in any of the fields I mentioned?
Anyone?
Try mysummeradvisor.com and look up Academic Programs for Computer Science or Math or Biology. I’m not aware of many programs in data science. It is such a new field. There are programs that apply programming in astronomy, for example. Also, look at the home page article on research opportunities. A lot of research in the life sciences using statistical programs like R to crunch data. You make also be interested in some of the pure math programs.
Carnegie Mellon has a very strong precollege CS program. You could always look for an internship to get some real experience which is more valuable than any summer program.
If you’re a girl, Girls Who Code is a viable option, but I’m assuming you’re passed that level of programming.
