In summary, the tools demonstrated in this workshop for network 
analysis, geolocation, and machine learning are at the forefront of 
social media research and will equip attendees — even those with no 
computational training — with expert understanding of how to collect, 
analyze, visualize, and interpret social media data for internal and 
public use.

In addition to covering the theoretical bases of working with and 
modeling big data, the training in this workshop will include access and 
use of leading data platforms, such as the Boston University Twitter 
Collection and Analysis Toolkit (BU-TCAT), Gephi, Discovertext, and R.

Media professionals, researchers, students, and anyone wanting to make 
sense of social media will benefit from attending this workshop. All 
participants that successfully complete this workshop will:

• Earn a Certificate in Social Media Analysis: Principals and Practices 
for Big Data from Boston University.

• Gain access to exclusive data analysis tools that can collect and 
analyze millions of units of social media content.

• Go beyond simple analytic dashboards and dive deep into data to take 
their analytic skills to the next level.

Again, please let me know any questions and share widely with 
colleagues, students, or professionals that might be interested to 
attend.  Space is limited, and registration is open at
