Johns Hopkins UniversityEst. 1876

America’s First Research University

The Johns Hopkins Data Science and AI Institute is an interdisciplinary institute dedicated to advancing education, research, and the real-world translation of trustworthy AI and data‑driven discovery. Here, world-class experts from across Johns Hopkins develop and deploy technologies to improve health, security, and opportunity for all. 

The institute is committed to the application and understanding of data, machine learning, and artificial intelligence systems—and their risks—across a range of critical and emerging fields, including neuroscience, precision medicine, climate resilience, and sustainability, public sector innovation, and the social sciences and humanities. 

The institute is built through a historic investment in:

People

  • 80 new tenure-track faculty specializing in data science and AI 
  • 30 new endowed chairs as part of the Bloomberg Distinguished Professorships program, with joint appointments across Johns Hopkins divisions 
  • A projected 30 scientific staff members and research software engineers  
  • More than 1,000 graduate students, undergraduate students, and postdoctoral researchers engaged through training and research 

Infrastructure

  • State-of-the-art academic buildings on the Johns Hopkins University Homewood campus, with classrooms, wet and dry laboratories, and collaborative workspaces 
  • Innovative and class-leading computational infrastructure

We partner with the School of Medicine and the nation’s top-ranked Bloomberg School of Public Health to bring the benefits and potential of data science and AI to health and medicine. We offer collaborative research awards and fellowships with the Applied Physics Laboratory. And we’ve created opportunities to apply the power of data to issues of democracy and evidence-based policy through JHU’s new School of Government and Policy.
