I am writing to announce a fellowship opportunity for your PhD
students, postdocs, and young faculty. We have had a great
experience with fellows with a Ecological Biology background and
would love to extend this opportunity to more folks with that
background. I would be extremely grateful if you could forward this
information onto them!
-----------------------------------------
Program: The Data Incubator is an intensive 8 week fellowship that
prepares Masters, PhDs, and postdocs in STEM + social science fields
seeking industry careers as data scientists. The program is free for
fellows and supported by sponsorships from dozens of employers across
multiple industries. In response to the overwhelming interest in our
earlier sessions, we will be holding another fellowship.
Locations: There will be both an in-person (in NYC, DC, SF) and
online section of the fellowship. There is a common application for
both the online and in-person sections.
Dates: All sections will be from 2016-01-04 to 2016-02-26
