DINS is committed to outreach to the community, our alumni, and the tenets of diversity and inclusion. We boast of the largest professional graduate program (the MSIS) at Pitt in the last few years, comprised of international students from Ecuador to China. We have supported innovative programs like the iSchool Inclusion Institute (see below). We work with communities in South Western PA. We have courses that meet the College in High School program.
College in High School Program (CHS)
DINS supports Pitt's College in High School program. The College in High School Program offers high school students access to the University of Pittsburgh’s rigorous coursework while earning college credit at a fraction of the cost. Find the INFSCI classes that DINS offers as part of CHS.
Working with the Community
Our faculty work with the community in many different ways. We engage with Pitt's Community Engagement Center and also in matters of public and social good with PittCyber (e.g., in areas related to the impact of algorithms on the community).
