Welcome to DS4Humans

This website is both the course site for the Duke Interdisciplinary Data Science Course Solving Problems with Data (IDS 701), as well as the beginning of what I hope will eventually become a stand-alone textbook by Nick Eubank.

If you aren’t a Duke IDS 701 student and wish to explore the content of the course, I’d suggest starting with the Introduction chapter here. You’re also welcome to browse the class schedule of topics covered in the class in the class schedule link, or hop down to the readings in Data Science in Practice towards the bottom of the left-hand navigation menu for a few stand-alone readings on various professionalization topics, like Writing to Stakeholders or Providing Feedback.

If you are a MIDS student, here’s are links to some course materials:
