A complete guide to writing for the NYU Data Science Club’s publication

Our mission is for the NYU Data Science Review to amplify the many voices in the NYU Data Science community. We’re always seeking students, faculty, and alumni to submit their writing for publication.

There are some necessary components of a quality Medium article. The following is a quick list of things to check with your own draft.

Citation and References:

Please provide in-text hyperlinks to any resources you refer to in text. Additionally, list your references at the end of the article in this format:

For example,

Our submission form has two options — you can pitch an initial idea for an article, or you can submit a full draft.

If you haven’t begun writing yet but want to know whether Random Forest will publish an article you have the idea for, pitch it to us! An editor will work with you to workshop and approve the idea, as well as answer any questions you might have while writing.

If you have a full draft ready, first make sure it meets all of our guidelines. Then use the form to submit.

After submitting your draft, you will be assigned an editor who will work directly with you. This is to ensure that your draft is ready for publishing, not for thorough revision. Please have your writing as refined as possible before submitting.

The draft will also be reviewed by the NYU Data Science club faculty advisors. They will provide additional feedback as necessary.

After approval, we will add you as a writer on Medium and give you the go-ahead to submit your draft to the Random Forest publication.

We look forward to reading and publishing your work!
