" Hello my name is Sophie and I am a psychology major and statistics minor. My Academic interests include cognitive science, business psychology, and data analysis. I took Data 101 because it seemed like a really interesting class and I wanted to learn more about the real world applications of data science. It ended up being one of my favorite classes I have ever taken at Rutgers and brought to light career possibilities for me that I haven’t thought about before."
