The Gateway will be the new home of the Division of Computing, Data Science, and Society (CDSS).
CDSS brings together data science education, the School of Information, the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences, the Department of Statistics, the Berkeley Institute for Data Science, the Center for Computational Biology, D-Lab, and the Computational Precision Health program.
The 367,270-square-foot building will be on Hearst Avenue at Arch Street, a prominent location of arrival and entry to the UC Berkeley campus. The Gateway is a collaborative space where approximately 1,325 faculty, students, researchers, and staff will work together to create accessible and equitable educational opportunities and catalyze groundbreaking research to meet society’s greatest challenges.
The facility includes a lower-level convening space, followed by five-floors of dedicated research laboratories, classrooms and auditoriums, seminar and conference rooms, offices, social kitchens, a public café, and a rooftop event space.
Construction of the Gateway begins in September 2022, and the building is anticipated to open during the 2025-2026 academic year.
