Many talented people from diverse fields call WID their intellectual home. Drawing from disciplines as diverse as computer sciences, biology, chemistry, informatics, engineering, mathematics, art, soil science, genetics, the humanities, and communications, the WID community prides itself on promoting productive collisions of research and ideas.
WID Faculty have dual appointments in WID and home departments all across the UW-Madison campus. By nucleating world-class faculty around key research strengths, WID is positioned to bring a novel and rigorous approach to big problems. Discovery Fellows and WID Affiliates increase WID’s campus-wide reach and pull in new perspectives.
