Developing meaningful data-driven advances to address societal challenges

The University of Notre Dame is a significant player in data science research, leveraging the power of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, and data science to analyze complex research questions. Dedicated to the ethical use of data, Notre Dame ensures transparency, respectful engagement, and sustainable, actionable results. Collaborations with corporate, government, and community partners enable Notre Dame to develop data-driven solutions that can significantly enhance regional and global economic development, cybersecurity, health outcomes, and sustainable development.

The Lucy Family Institute for Data and Society acts as a central hub for data-driven research and education, embodying Notre Dame's mission to ethically address society's challenges. Within the institute, researchers benefit from a wide array of facilities, the Applied Analytics and Emerging Technology Lab (AETL), the Data, Inference, Analytics, and Learning Lab (DIAL), the Health Equity Data Lab, and AnalytiXIN. Further supporting Notre Dame's research prowess are campus centers and labs like the Center for Research Computing (CRC), which offers advanced computing infrastructure and modeling capabilities; the Computational Molecular Science and Engineering Laboratory (CoMSEL) which advances health outcomes through machine learning and computational tools; and iNDustry Labs, a local industrial collaboration in the South Bend-Elkhart Region. This blend of academia, industry, and public entities facilitates co-innovation and promotes diverse and inclusive capacity building within the community. Additionally, the University's experiential learning programs are shaping the next generation of leaders for a data-driven future.
