The Future of CSSI
The opportunity to harness the world of big data and better navigate the complexity of science and technology wouldn’t be possible without our incredible donors. CSSI is fortunate to have the support of several amazing institutions and individuals who recognize the momentum, work and potential of this exciting new area of study.
Minerva Grant
The Department of Defense named Dashun Wang and the Kellogg School of Management a 2018 recipient of the prestigious Minerva Grant. In total, 12 faculty awardees were selected from around the world following a merit competition of approximately 175 applicants across eight categories. Research proposals were peer-reviewed and selected in conference between the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering and the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Policy to identify proposals that make foundational contributions to basic social science and align with the National Defense Strategy.
In a DoD press release about the awards, Dr. Bindu Nair, deputy director of the Basic Research Office, said, “We live in a dynamic world, and many of the challenges we face are social or have social elements to them. Knowledge and methodologies generated from Minerva awardees are an important source of new ideas from the social science community to better understand the social aspects that are inherent to security and stability.”
