TAMIDS offers and supports a wide range of opportunities for students to engage with data science through research, leadership, and professional development. TAMIDS collaborates with departments, student organizations, and industry focused on AI, machine learning, and related fields, and supports student-led initiatives through mentorship and events. Programs like the Data Science Ambassador Scholarship and Student Travel Grants empower students to grow as leaders and share their work at conferences. TAMIDS also hosts annual data science competitions and connects students with internships and job opportunities through its network of affiliates.
Student Ambassadors
TAMIDS Data Science Ambassador Scholarship Program invites Texas A&M PhD students to serve as representatives for TAMIDS and champions for Data Science literacy in their departments. The competitive program will provide ambassadors with leadership, technical, and training skills which they will practice through engagement in their home departments.
Student Travel Grant Program
The Texas A&M Institute of Data Science (TAMIDS) Student Travel Grant Program supports undergraduate and graduate students who attend and speak at conferences in any domain of Data Science, AI, and Machine Learning. Awards of up to $500 will be made for work involving an innovation in systems, methods or algorithms for data collection and management, modeling, analysis, or decision making, or the use of these for knowledge discovery in application domains.
Student Organizations in Data Science
TAMIDS actively collaborates with and supports student organizations that share an interest in AI, machine learning, and other areas of data science. Through these partnerships, TAMIDS provides mentorship, resources, and opportunities for students to engage in hands-on projects, workshops, and events that enhance their skills and broaden their understanding of data-driven research and applications.

Student Data Science Competitions
Each year, we hold a month-long data science competition open to all undergraduate and graduate students at Texas A&M. With thousands of dollars in prizes and a new topic each competition, you will find plenty of reasons to come back each year.
