Data for Good

Computing Systems for Data-Driven Science

We explore the design, analysis, and application of massive-scale computing systems for processing data.

Cybersecurity

We develop the capacity to keep data secure and private throughout its lifetime. 

Data, Media and Society

We use data generated by people and data about people to understand human behavior.

Financial and Business Analytics

We develop analytical and computational tools to manage risk and to support decisions using the growing volume and variety of data available. 


Foundations of Data Science

We conduct core research on problems that cut across the data sciences and engineering.

Health Analytics

We work to improve the health of individuals and the health care system through data-driven methods and understanding of health processes. 

Sense, Collect and Move Data

We study the physical aspects of sensing, generating, collecting, storing, transporting, and processing large data sets. 

Smart Cities

We develop, monitor, and improve infrastructure, buildings, transportation routes, the power supply, and everyday activities in crowded, urban environments.
