The Computation Institute at University of Chicago and Argonne National Laboratory is running a Data Science for Social Good summer fellowship program this summer in Chicago. Fellows will be grad students or advanced undergrads in computer science, machine learning, statistics, and the computational and quantitative sciences. The goal is to train them as data scientists that can tackle problems in education, healthcare, energy, transportation, and more. Working with full-time mentors from academia and industry, fellows will work on high-impact analytics projects using statistics, machine learning, data mining, and big data technologies.

The fellowships are paid competitively and we will provide housing for duration of the program, from early June to late August. Rayid Ghani, former Chief Scientist of the Obama 2012 campaign, is leading the program. Eric Schmidt of Google and Jake Porway of DataKind are advisors.

Applications are due April 1st. We're looking for strong applicants for fellow and mentor positions. More details at http://www.ci.uchicago.edu/datasciencefellowship
