About Data Science in Oregon

University of Oregon's Presidential Initiative in Data Science

The sophisticated analysis of large and varied data sets is transforming society and scholarship within universities. The University of Oregon’s Presidential Initiative in Data Science joins a growing tide of elite institutions using data science to transform the world. And because we’re UO, we bring our unique strengths as a liberal arts university to the conversation – to not only ask what can we do with data – but what should we do.

Guided by the work of the faculty visioning committee, the data science initiative is integrating, enhancing, and expanding the university’s existing data science activities to support undergraduate education and research university-wide.
