Who We Are
Midd.data provides equitable and inclusive access to powerful tools for data and digital analysis from the moment students arrive on campus. Students are prepared to critically evaluate data and data-driven arguments from a variety of perspectives, discover insights from data both independently and in collaboration with others, and effectively communicate their findings.
