The Center for Data Science (ds.cs.umass.edu & @UMassDataSci) is excited to launch another year of Data Science Tea events. Data Science Teas will be held on Mondays or Tuesdays from 4-5pm in CS Building Rooms 150 & 151. The first Tea will be held on Monday, September 24th.

The Teas host technical conversations about topics in data science. Our first Tea will feature a series of introductory and overview talks to kick off the Fall semester:

• Executive Director Brant Cheikes will present an overview of the Center for Data Science, and describe upcoming programs and activities that will benefit graduate students

• Overviews of some of the amazing research computing resources available in the College

• CICS faculty will introduce themselves and summarize their education and research activities

• DS Tea & MLFL organizers will present highlights of upcoming talks

Tea, coffee, tea sandwiches, and cakes will be served. Bring your own mug to help reduce waste!
