Iowa State students transform data to solve community problems
August 23, 2022
AMES, Iowa — Iowa State University students are pulling data from across the state to inform policymakers and decision-makers on some of the biggest challenges in Iowa.
Now in its third year, the Data Science for the Public Good Young Scholars Program engages undergraduate and graduate students to work on projects that address local and state government challenges. This summer, 12 students participated in the intensive training program, which was led by Iowa State University and ISU Extension and Outreach.
