Anything that falls under the umbrella of Data Science and Information Science is intrinsically interdisciplinary and the classes I took at UCLA where as interdisciplinary as it gets. During my first two years as a
Ph.D. Ph.D., I took classes such as
\begin{itemize}
\item Methods for social network analysis (Sociology)
\item Critical studies of architecture (Architecture)
...
\item Formal Modeling and Simulations in Social Sciences (Complex Systems)
\item Data and Media Arts (Design School)
\end{itemize}
A pretty mixed bag, huh? (\href{http://albertopepe.com/phdclasses}{Full list here}). While it all sounds a bit eccentric, these were the most formative, nurturing years of my life (I will discuss this in detail in a separate
blog post). These classes instructed me on research methods I did
now not know about: for my dissertation
\cite{Pepe} \cite{Pepe}, I used graph theory (physics), survey research (sociology), and "complex systems" methods. These classes also
gave let me
the opportunity to get to know, meet, collaborate, and publish papers with scholars in other disciplines: sociology/identity \cite{Pepe_2012},
music research \cite{Rodriguez_2008}, social media analysis \cite{Shuai_2012}, semantic web theory
\cite{Rodriguez_2010}. \cite{Rodriguez_2010}, and even music research \cite{Rodriguez_2008}. In the final year of my
Ph.D. Ph.D., I was lucky enough to meet a Professor of Astronomy at Harvard - \href{https://www.cfa.harvard.edu/~agoodman/}{Alyssa Goodman} -
who was passionate about data,
data visualization, digital libraries, Open Access,
and Open Science. We immediately struck a chord and she offered me a Postdoc
at Harvard to be as the in-house information scientist at the \href{https://www.cfa.harvard.edu/}{Center for Astrophysics}. So, a return to \textbf{Astrophysics}, some people thought! Well, not really, because at Harvard I also became a fellow of the most excellent \href{http://cyber.law.harvard.edu/}{Berkman Center for Internet and Society} (\textbf{Law}) and \href{http://www.iq.harvard.edu/}{Institute for Quantitative Social Science} (\textbf{Social Sciences}).
