Please join us for the inauguration of BIDSA
Bocconi Institute for Data Science and
Analytics. This interdisciplinary research
center will be the hub of data-driven research
at Bocconi and it aims to promote and conduct
both theoretical and applied research involving
modeling and analysis of large-scale datasets.
It represents Bocconi’s timely answer to the
increasing interest in Data Science and the
rapidly growing demand for data scientists
across all industries. As such, BIDSA will
support the training of students and junior
researchers in fields where the use of advanced
statistical and computational methodologies is
essential.
