through more effective use of data science, technology, and AI
Kimberly A. Griffin
Professor and Dean of the College of Education
The Center for Educational Data Science and Innovation, also known as EDSI, aligns well with UMD's commitment to innovation and exploration in the areas of data science and AI. EDSI will be a unique interdisciplinary center, committed to research, practice, and dissemination of critical information to ensure the ethical use of AI to enhance equity, effectiveness, and efficiency in education.

Senior Vice President and Provost
This center holds great potential for improving education systems and outcomes through more effective use of data science, technology, and AI. I am particularly excited about the cutting edge research that this center will enable, and the potential for that research to drive data-informed policy and practice, technological advances, and ultimately, more effective and equitable educational opportunities for all learners.
