We define “data science” broadly. If you are involved in research at the University of Michigan and are interested in data science methods and technology, this group is for you.
We are an inclusive community. Everyone is welcome regardless of their gender, race, sexual orientation, political and religious beliefs, level of education, job title, etc.
All members are invited to organize events that promote diversity, equity and inclusion.
We strive to make our events as accessible as possible by offering multiple formats that accommodate different schedules.
If you have a disability, please let us know how we can ensure your full participation in the Collective.
