The MSH (House of Human Sciences) Paris-Saclay has two ambitions: promote interdisciplinarity and federate the SHS forces of Paris-Saclay University. It is present on the Saclay site with 1200 permanent (C, EC and ITA) and 800 doctoral students in about 37 SHS units. The MSH, based on the cartography it has developed, will bring together SHS researchers working on the research axes of the DATAIA Institute.
The MSH shares several teachers-researchers with the DATAIA Institute, who have already collaborated together in the framework of the Institute of the Digital Society (ISN), which contributed to the emergence of the DATAIA Institute. In addition, the DATAIA Institute carries out a multidisciplinary research on data and algorithms, in perfect articulation with the first axis of the MSH (digital and humanities), which brings together 400 SHS researchers and PhD students working on massive data, algorithms and decision ; with the second axis of the MSH (environment and health) which gathers more than 300 researchers and doctoral students SHS; with the third axis of the MSH (transition and innovation), which brings together digital and ecological transitions, data issues being present on all three axes.
