Jacob earned a degree in Probability and Statistics through the UCSD Math Department and a minor in Data Science. He completed multiple data science projects concerned with climate change and its impacts on the environment and the inhabitants of California while pursuing his minor. Jacob also served as a Research Assistant at Scripps Institution of Oceanography under Professor Katherine Ricke, working on a project to evaluate the efficacy of current climate change impacts models. Jacob’s positive undergraduate experience was aided in large part by the recently established UCSD Data Science Department and all of its advisors and professors. Though Jacob did not have an affiliation with the UCSD Medical School, Dr. Grant provided Jacob with mentoring throughout his time at UCSD, and was very pleased to serve as a family faculty representative in this virtual graduation.
