Data Scientifique is central to a university-wide initiative to develop the capacity for data science and analytics research at Concordia.Housed in the PERFORM Centre, our mission is to help researchers learn and incorporate the cutting edge in computation and programming techniques in their work and facilitate knowledge translation.
We help researchers leverage advances in analytics and other quantitative methodologies by providing technical expertise inclduing a drop-in, educational programs such as workshops, and additional resources including financial support

Have a quick questions about statistics? Can't figure out the errors in your code? Need help putting together a data management plan for your grant? Want to learn more about how to apply big data approaches to your research? Come see us for some free technical advice and support! We hold weekly drop-in on Thursdays between 1:00 PM and 4:00 PM in our Data Scientifique Office at the PERFORM Centre in PC 2.302. If you can't make it the weekly drop-in, feel free to contact us at data.science@concordia.ca to set up an appointment! |
PERFORM DATA SCIENTIFIQUE ENRICHMENT AWARD
Data Scientifique is soliciting applications for a newly-minted competitive award for promising graduate students and postdoctoral fellows at the nexus of data science and preventative health. The PERFORM Centre Data Science Award is provides financial support (of up to $1,000) for awardees to attend events, workshops, or conferences to (1) develop technical skills in one of the four areas of computational and data sciences (i.e., statistics, programming, data management, data visualization) or (2) present research on preventative health and health policy using computational techniques.
Ideal candidates will come from technical disciplines (e.g., computer science) with interest in topics related to health or domain-specific degree programs (e.g., psychology) interesting in further developing technical skillsets. |
Students must complete an online application and faculty recommendation forms to be considered for the award. Application Deadline: TBD
