The Data Science Corps (DSC) program, solicitation number 24-560, is a federal initiative by the National Science Foundation designed to strengthen the national data science infrastructure and workforce. The program aims to bridge the data-to-knowledge gap by engaging students in real-world implementation projects that address specific needs within government, industry, academia, and both rural and urban communities. By partnering data scientists with these organizations, the program seeks to create a workforce-ready cohort of technologists experienced in applying data science to practical settings, with a particular focus on knowledge representation and the use of knowledge graphs. This opportunity is open to a broad range of participants, including undergraduates from community colleges, Minority Serving Institutions, emerging research institutions, and EPSCoR jurisdictions, as well as grade 6-12 teachers and students. The program emphasizes broadening participation in STEM and STEM education. While proposals are submitted through the Directorate for STEM Education, Division of Research on Learning in Formal and Informal Settings, they are managed by a cross-disciplinary team of NSF Program Directors. This initiative evolved from the Harnessing the Data Revolution activity to support the integration of data-intensive research and workforce development.
