Giving Tuesday is here, and we hope you’ll support Boston University’s Faculty of Computing & Data Sciences (CDS)! 📢 We’ve made great strides since our founding: we’ve expanded course offerings, our undergraduate classes include nearly half women despite national STEM trends, and we support student innovation through the Duan Family Spark! Initiative. 💡 Our faculty secured prestigious awards from NSF, NIH, DARPA, Google, and the Simmons Foundation. We continue to recruit exceptional new faculty pursuing societally-relevant “research that matters” in fields from data privacy to climate and atmospheric science. And the Emerging Group ranked us ninth in the world in digital education and graduates’ employability in Data Science.
Support from generous donors helps make all of this possible, and we are deeply grateful. We hope you will join us in this effort by making a gift this Giving Tuesday and spreading the word to support CDS today: https://give.bu.edu/schools/BostonUniversity/giving-tuesday/pages/schools-and-colleges/cds
