DSI Scholars Program
Overview
The DSI Scholars program matches Columbia students with paid opportunities to work with faculty on data science-related research projects. Through these research projects and enrichment activities, the program aims to foster mentorship and a collaborative data science community at Columbia.
This unique, interdisciplinary program allows undergraduate and master students to engage in emerging research under the mentorship of acclaimed Columbia faculty. Each term, the Data Science Institute will select up to 10 faculty-led interdisciplinary research projects and will provide funding to the students to perform research-related duties. Students selected as DSI Scholars will receive a stipend to support their living expenses while conducting research.
