Justice Media Computational Journalism Co-Lab

This Cross-College Challenge (XCC) and BU Spark! course is a newsroom and a laboratory. If you have a background in computer and data science, statistics, computer engineering, or journalism-related disciplines, you will have an opportunity to work on interdisciplinary, student teams to co-produce a data-driven news investigation for one of our established media partners (like the Boston Globe, CBS Boston, GBH, USA Today, and more). You will work on computational investigations focused on issues of justice and accountability, and be guided by veteran faculty practitioners.
