Democratizing Data at Brown
A student-led group advancing data literacy through workshops, real-world consulting, and original research — open to every Brown student.
Three pillars.
One purpose.
The Brown Analytics Group was founded on a simple premise: every student, regardless of background, should have access to the tools and knowledge that define modern decision-making.
Education
Weekly workshops covering SQL, Python, machine learning, and data visualization — designed for beginners, challenging enough for the curious. Open to the entire Brown and RISD community.
Consulting
Student teams partner with startups, nonprofits, and University departments to extract actionable insights from data. Real engagements, real deliverables, and a portfolio that speaks at interviews.
Research
Original quantitative research in fields from public policy to sports analytics, conducted under faculty advisors. We write, we publish, we present.

No SQL knowledge needed. Bring your laptop.
