The mission of the Data Science Institute (DSI) is to convene, catalyse and communicate activity in data science and AI across ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳. It is an interdisciplinary institute working alongside academic departments and research centres to foster research, education and engagement in the study of data science and AI through a social science lens.
We currently connect ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳ faculty working in these areas through our Faculty Affiliate Scheme, a key feature of which is the wide range of departments represented. We aim to achieve this same breadth with our PhD Affiliate scheme.
