Recent Initiatives
Integrative Data Science Initiative
The Integrative Data Science Initiative will push the frontiers of scientific discovery well beyond current confines. We will be a national leader in applying Data Science to solve large and pressing problems ranging from food insecurity to disease. The “Embedding Data Science into Domain Curricula” program will also serve as a new model for other universities seeking to implement a comprehensive educational Data Science initiative. Data Science thrives when collaboration is fully engaged and, with this proposed Initiative, we are fully engaging the power of Purdue.
