The Center for Data and Society (D&S) is a faculty collaboration among the computer, mathematical, and social sciences. It includes disciplines ranging from math and computer science, through to international affairs and political science studies, plus newly emerging areas like cybersecurity and digital forensics. This interdisciplinarity captures today’s ever-evolving technological and global society. By helping students synthesize, analyze, and integrate “real-world” examples, the Center investigates how data and information can be best used to understand the communities in which we live.
