On March 9, the opening ceremony for Korea University Institute of Data Science (KUIDS) was held at the International Center for Converging Technology. KUIDS is an institute aimed to support active research and education in the fields of artificial intelligence (AI) and data science (DS).

KUIDS plans to create an environment which encourages the research of AI and DS based technologies. In order to promote convergence research, the institute will design programs facilitating collective AI and DS research in various areas such as humanities, natural science, applied science, and medical science. Furthermore, “Data Science Academy” will be organized to provide AI and DS convergence education as non-degree courses for KU faculty members, students, and the public.

Professor Kim Sangsig (Department of Electrical Engineering), the first head of KUIDS, stated, “KUIDS will strive to promote research and industry-academic cooperation in order to successfully establish a platform that leads the era of the fourth industrial revolution.” Indeed, KUIDS is expected to pave the way for fostering intensive AI and DS research.
