The Swiss Data Science Center

Enabling data-driven science and innovation for societal impact, and supporting scientists, businesses and organizations in their data science and AI journey.

In 2017, a national Data Science initiative from the ETH Board resulted in the creation of a unique strategic focus area: the Swiss Data Science Center (SDSC), bringing together the ETH Zürich, the EPFL, and the PSI. The SDSC’s mission is to accelerate the use of data science and machine learning techniques within academic disciplines of the ETH Domain, the Swiss academic community at large, the public institutions and the industrial sector.

A team of senior data scientists and experts in domains such as personalized health & medicine, earth & environmental science, social sciences, digital humanities and economics collaborate on academic and industrial projects. This unique positioning, at the crossroad of academic excellence and a fast-paced business environment, is key to simplifying a complex data science journey.
