The new Data Science Institute (DSI) executes the University of Chicago’s bold, innovative vision of Data Science as a new discipline by advancing interdisciplinary research, partnerships with industry, government, and social impact organizations, and holistic data science education.

Our next workshop focused on celebrating and fast tracking the careers of exceptional data scientists will take place on November 11th and 12th.

UChicago students will learn how to analyze data and apply it to critical real-world problems in medicine, public policy, the social and physical sciences, and many other domains.

Students work on research projects in our program to train and inspire the next generation of interdisciplinary computational and data scientists.

High school students learned about the basics of data science and the various career pathways available to them with computational skills.

Four new projects funded by the CDAC Discovery Challenge program will build interdisciplinary partnerships, open source software, and tools for real-world problems.

A new grant from the Public Interest Technology University Network (PIT-UN) will support and expand the CDAC/Harris clinic, which pairs student data scientists with social good organizations.

Critical conversations between industry leaders and researchers pushing the frontiers of data science, security and privacy, data analysis and discovery, and artificial intelligence.
