Your Support Makes a Difference

Your support helps the Marquette Center for Data Ethics advance research, education, and public engagement on the ethical, social, and political dimensions of our increasingly data- and AI-driven society.

Gifts support public events, interdisciplinary research, student opportunities, and initiatives that address pressing challenges around privacy, algorithmic decision-making, artificial intelligence, and responsible data practices..

A gift of any size counts, and every gift matters. 

To discuss opportunities to support the Center's mission, please contact Michael Zimmer (Director, Center for Data Ethics) or Molly Eldridge (Director of Development)
