The National Science Foundation's Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) Federal Grant Program awarded $228,272.00 to Johnson C. Smith University, Incorporated (JCSU) for the "Collaborative Research: The Charlotte Data Science Corps - Cross-Institutional Flexible Pathways and Immersive Community Capacity Building" project. This 3-year project, starting on September 1, 2025, aims to expand regional and national data science capacity and education while bringing data science expertise to small community-serving organizations in the Greater Charlotte region. The project will design and implement a data steward program that places students from JCSU, UNC Charlotte, and Central Piedmont Community College in real-world data projects with local nonprofit organizations, providing them with hands-on experience in applying data science to address challenges in sectors such as health and human services. In parallel, the project will develop and enhance flexible and affordable pathways into the field of data science, contributing to the progress of science, enhanced education and economic opportunity, and serving the national interest by increasing participation and capacity in this vital domain.
