His course at CMU "Advanced Data Analysis from an Elementary Point of View" has course notes and exercises available gratis: http://www.stat.cmu.edu/~cshalizi/uADA/13/ http://www.stat.cmu.edu/~cshalizi/uADA/13/. And any time I need to get a reading list, the best place to start is usually his 'notebooks' page.
