The University of California Board of Regents recently approved the creation of a new school at UC San Diego aimed to provide students opportunities to engage directly with industry and government partners, and learn first-hand how data science can allow organizations to better address a broad range of societal problems such as climate change mitigation, social justice issues, technical challenges, and healthcare. The School of Computing, Information and Data Sciences (SCIDS) intends to combine the strengths of the San Diego Supercomputer Center (SDSC) and the Halicioğlu Data Science Institute (HDSI) to create a curriculum to advance data science and AI state-of-the-art.
