 Science of Data Science Programme

Background

Data science is a diverse and rapidly evolving area. Each year, new ideas, techniques, and principles emerge that change the scope and norms of the field. Keeping up-to-date with these developments requires a broad and reflective focus on the changing science and practice of data science itself.

Our Mission

To spotlight and explore the theory, methods, and practice of data science to support more robust, transparent, and impactful research across the University of Leeds.

What we do

We provide a network for researchers from all disciplines who share a common interest in the underpinning science and practice of data science.

We will work with other networks and communities across Leeds, and beyond, to create an enlightening and thought-provoking series of events, focussed on exploring new knowledge, ideas, and developments in the field.
