Support Data Theory at UCLA

A strong education in Data Theory is more important than ever.

UCLA is leading the future in Data Theory education and research

Several of our faculty members are using mathematical models to predict and help mitigate the spread of COVID-19, and provide resources for the community. Even during these difficult times, we are dedicated to offering high-quality instruction to help Bruins stay on track with career goals and aspirations.

Gifts to support our nascent Data Theory Major contribute to the Mathematics and Statistics Departments’ history of excellence and the global impact of research by our students and faculty.

Your support of Data Theory can be focused within any of the following areas:

Discretionary Fund

The most flexible donor fund is used for immediate, one-time needs. These may include visiting lecturers and scholars, graduate recruitment, conferences, seminar support, or equipment for research and instruction.

Endowments

Endowments provide a lasting legacy of support for Data Theory and the critical scientific discovery it is making toward the understanding and architecting of data. From these investments, awards are given to outstanding students for service and positive contributions to the departmental community, achievement in academics and teaching, recruitment, conference travel, and more. Endowed faculty chairs are also critical to retaining the best mentors and educators within our department.
