Applied Data Fellowship

The Applied Data Fellowship is a University of Chicago program based at the Harris School of Public Policy focused on the intersection of data analysis and public policy in the United States. Over the course of one year, Fellows will work to translate data-driven insights into actionable policy recommendations, new programs, and operational changes for high impact project partners. The program embeds talented young professionals with strong data skills into local government and nonprofit organizations across the United States. In addition to hands-on experience implementing data insights and working closely with senior-level stakeholders, Fellows receive managerial oversight, mentorship, and technical support in the form of data analysis training and oversight.
