2022 Stanford Data Science for Social Good

The Data Science for Social Good summer program trains aspiring researchers to work on data science projects with social impact. Working closely with governments and nonprofits, participants take on real-world problems in education, health, energy, public safety, transportation, economic development, international development, and more. Participants include a diverse and inclusive cohort of students who spend the summer on campus working with the program.
This fourth summer of the Stanford Data Science for Social Good (DSSG) program ran from June 20th to August 12th, 2022.
The goal of the DSSG program is to train the next generation of ethically aware data scientists and to provide measurable impact for projects with social impact. This summer's program had seven student fellows from various backgrounds, ranging from computer science to statistics to sociology. This year, Stanford also invited fellows from other US universities! The fellows were divided into two teams, each working with a different partner organization to bring critical insights into a core data science challenge.
