Data Science Bible 2.0#
The Data Science Bible 2.0 is an unofficial, collaborative Google Drive folder containing material and useful information related to the Data Science Master’s Degree Programme. The collection includes resources for first- and second-year courses, as well as general material on Data Science topics.
How to request access
To access the shared folder, fill in the access request form. The Drive administrators will send you a confirmation email once access has been granted; according to them, this may take up to two days.
After gaining access, read the “00_README (Information about Data Science’s bible folder)” file before using or contributing to the collection. Please handle shared files carefully, do not delete existing material, and add tags or keywords when appropriate so that resources remain easy to find.
The folder is maintained collaboratively. If you find useful material or information during your courses, consider adding it and keeping the existing resources tidy and up to date, so that they can also help future students ✨
Warning
The Data Science Bible is maintained by students and is not an official Sapienza resource. Course content, syllabi, and exam methods may change depending on the academic year and lecturer. Consult the material critically and always compare it with the current syllabus and the resources provided by your lecturers.
Notes from the student community#
Students enrolled in different academic years have shared their course notes, creating a collection of useful material for revision and further study. Each student’s notes follow their own structure: some are more detailed and extensive, explaining the entire reasoning process, while others are quicker and more concise 🧙♂️
Warning
Syllabi, course content, and exam methods may change depending on the academic year and lecturer. The completeness and quality of the notes may also vary: the Sapienza Students Network staff does not systematically verify the material and cannot guarantee that it is free from errors or typos. You should therefore consult it critically and at your own risk, always comparing it with the current syllabus and official course material. Many collections are nevertheless of excellent quality, and some provide practical ways to report possible typos directly to their respective authors.
Do you have a collection of notes that you would like to make available to everyone?
You can ask us to add it to this list by contacting us through the dedicated Telegram bot, opening an issue, or proposing a change to this page, from which you can then create a pull request.

Teaching Telegram groups#
The Telegram groups for individual courses are useful spaces for discussing with other students and exchanging information and material related to different courses. New Telegram members can also access the full chat history, since messages and shared files are stored in the cloud. We therefore recommend searching previous messages as well: over time, exercises, explanations, and useful resources may have been shared there.
Official course material and e-learning#
At the beginning of each semester, check the lecturers’ noticeboards and the group chats for updated links to the e-learning pages of individual courses: Google Classroom, Google Groups, Sapienza e-learning (Moodle), or dedicated course websites. These are normally the spaces where lecturers publish slides, handouts, exercises, announcements, and other official material during the course.
