DSI: Data Science and Informatics Student Organization at UF connects students across academic programs by initiating group learning through technical workshops, speaker sessions, discussion groups and other activities.

DSI Symposium


DSI is hosting our Spring Symposium on Saturday, March 18th from 9:45am-4pm in the Reitz Union Grand Ball Room.

Come spend your Saturday at the largest DSI event of the year - our annual Symposium.

Begin the day with Einstein's bagels for breakfast, remarks from DSI leadership and the UFII Director, and a keynote by Jack Kendall, the founder of a Deep Learning startup here in Gainesville.

The symposium continues with speakers from a wide range of research fields at UF iin three breakout sessions of four speakers each. Learn about computer vision, bioinformatics, political forecasting, business analytics, and more.

Our symposium will also include two rounds of workshops with several choices in each round- so you can brush up on your Python, learn about data visualization, or deepen your knowledge of machine learning.

This is a fantastic opportunity to network with students and faculty who are passionate about the impact of data science and the tools they utilize to realize that impact.

Breakfast and Lunch will be served.
