Data Science for Social Good Summer Fellowship

We’re training future data scientists to work on the world’s most challenging social problems.
Fellows will work in small teams with mentors from the Obama campaign analytics team and seasoned data scientists from academia and business on high-impact projects in education, healthcare, energy, transportation, and more.

We're looking for PhD, masters, and advanced undergraduate students in the computer science, statistics, and the computational and quantitative sciences. If you're an amazing software engineer with a serious interest in data science, we want to hear from you too.
You’ll need statistics, programming, and data skills - but you don’t need to be an expert in every area.
Most of all, we want people who are passionate about using data for social impact.

Application Deadline: April 1, 2013
Acceptance Notification: April 10-15, 2013
Fellowship Program: Early June - Late August 2013
You'll need a resume, 1 to 2 letters of recommendation, and statement of interest highlighting experience with data science projects and passion for social impact.
