On Tuesday, February 7, the Brown faculty voted in favor of creating a Brown Data Science Institute, building on the Data Science Initiative that was created here in 2016. On Friday, DSI Director Sohini Ramachandran presented the proposal to the Corporation, who approved the faculty’s recommendation.
The incoming co-chairs of DSI's Campus Advisory Board are Stephen Bach (Assistant Professor of Computer Science) and Margo Jackson (Professor of Sociology).
Congratulations to DSI’s Roberta DeVito (jointly appointed in Biostatistics), for winning the American Statistical Association’s 2022 W.J. Youden Award in Interlaboratory Testing.
Brown’s Data Fluency Certificate provides undergraduate students with the opportunity to gain fundamental conceptual knowledge and technical skills in data analysis.
