BIDS Faculty / Research Affiliation

BIDS Faculty Affiliation Criteria - Fall 2023

BIDS fosters a community that values collaboration and interdisciplinary discovery and learning. Our faculty affiliate represents over 30 UC Berkeley academic departments and colleges, and schools. If you depend on data science to advance research, create knowledge, and/or challenge your students, consider becoming a BIDS Faculty Affiliate.

As a research arm of the new College of Computing, Data Science, and Society (CDSS), BIDS and its affiliates also benefit from the data-centric initiatives and programs that CDSS leads. In addition, BIDS actively develops new academic and industry partnerships and interdisciplinary research collaborations, which will serve you, your partners, and your students in data science research.
