A 7.5 hour bootcamp spread over 5 days, where students learn data science by building and analyzing games! Data scientists apply maths and code to help people answer questions, solve problems, and build smarter applications.

Strive's Data Science Bootcamp takes middle school students from having no coding experience to applying Google's machine learning toolkit using the same maths they're learning in class.

<aside> 🐍 Strive students learn to code in Python, one of the most useful programming languages in the world. They use the same coding environments as the pros: Jupyter notebooks for number crunching and p5 sketches for creative expression.
