The Data Science major will provide students with strong foundations in data science and practical knowledge of the methods and techniques of data analysis, as well as the ability to think critically about the construction and implications of data analysis and models. This program is for anyone interested in the analysis and interpretation of large sets of data, or “big data,” which are found in a wide range of disciplines such as meteorology, genomics, physics, biological and environmental research, health sciences, business and economics, to name a few.
By combining carefully selected computer science, mathematics courses and other electives along with practical and capstone experiences, students across a wide array of campus disciplines will be able to participate in data science projects by designing and carrying out rigorous computational analysis for their fields of interest.
