The multi-institutional effort will provide faculty with professional development and facilitate collaborations across the field

“Building Data Science Communities for Improving Student Success” is a partnership between University of California, Santa Cruz and California State University Monterey Bay. The project will be led by Pedro Morales-Almazan, professor of mathematics at UC Santa Cruz, in collaboration with others.
“This grant is a great opportunity for UC Santa Cruz and the local community to learn more about the different aspects of data science,” Morales-Almazan said.
