The Data Incubator is an 8-week educational fellowship preparing students with Master's degrees and PhDs for careers in Big Data and Data science founded in 2014.[2] The fellowship's expenses are paid for by hiring companies and it remains free for admitted fellows.[1] The program has four campuses: New York, Washington DC, San Francisco, and Online.[1]
According to Venture Beat, the program had over 1000 applicants from over 80 universities in its first round and accepted just under 3% of all applicants[3] and was selected by Business Insider as one of 15 competitive programs in the US with more competitive admissions than Harvard.[4]
History
The Data Incubator was founded in 2014 in New York City by Michael Li, a former data scientist at local-mobile-social startup Foursquare.[5][6] The company was incubated by Cornell Tech.[5] In 2015, the program launched in San Francisco.[7]
Reception
The Data Incubator was ranked second by Data Economy for Data Science Incubators.[8] The fellowship has garnered the attention of many businesses in Wall Street and Silicon Valley and works with companies including Mashable, the New York Times, Palantir, EBay, AIG, Yelp, Genentech, Capital One, and Pfizer.[3][7]
