UC Berkeley Division of Data Sciences Information

UC Berkeley’s Division of Data Sciences brings together world-leading faculty from across disciplines to empower students to engage as leaders, creators, and change agents in an increasingly data-rich world. The Division is the realization of a vision that hundreds of faculty and students have helped shape and continue to build. It represents a new and dynamic teaching and discovery environment that emphasizes rigorous education, hands-on research opportunities, and an understanding of the human and social implications of data. Data science students graduate with the skills and understanding required to capably and responsibly gather, process, manage, and draw conclusions from data to gain insights and address social challenges in virtually any domain, from evolutionary genetics to urban planning.
