Digging into Data Challenge

Digging into Data Challenge – an international research funding opportunity

SSHRC is pleased to announce the launch of the third Digging into Data Challenge competition designed to spur computationally intensive research in the humanities and social sciences (http://www.sshrc-crsh.gc.ca/news_room-salle_de_presse/press_releases-communiques/2013/data-donnees_numeriques-eng.aspx?). 

To date, the Digging into Data Challenge has funded a wide variety of projects that explore how computationally intensive research methods can be used to ask new questions about and gain new insights into our world. To encourage innovative research from across the globe, Digging into Data is sponsored by ten international research funding organizations that are working together to focus the attention of the social sciences, humanities, library, archival, information, computer, mathematical, and statistical science communities on large-scale data analysis and its potential applications. 

Final applications will be due May 15, 2013. Further information about the competition and the application process can be found at www.diggingintodata.org.
