About us
Our purpose
The Data Science Campus plays a crucial role in informing the social and economic management of the UK economy by using innovative data sources, methods, and analysis. We ensure that the Office for National Statistics (ONS), HM Government, and other National Statistical Institutes become more efficient, resilient, and future-proofed. Also, we strengthen data science skills across the public sector and internationally, enabling the exploitation of potential benefits in a data rich world.
