Bachelor of Science in Data Science

Have you always excelled in mathematics and science? If you’re fascinated by mathematical analysis of data information, our data science training degree program can help you become well versed in statistics and computer programming, preparing you for a variety of careers, from statistical analyst to database architect. 

As a student in our data science degree program, you’ll learn the necessary skills to execute effective mathematical analysis in finance, economics, biology, social sciences, business and data science. Students will gain experience in programming for data compilation; drawing data-based conclusions, modeling techniques and strategies, presenting compelling quantitative narratives; and more.

This program includes two concentration tracks:

  • Life and Physical Science: Students of the life and physical science concentration will have the opportunity to not only expand on their general education science selection but also apply their background in collaboration with professionals in health, pharmaceutical and science fields.
  • Big Data: Students of our big data training concentration will focus on learning and developing programming-based solutions to storing, mining, cleaning, filtering and ultimately analyzing extreme volumes of data.

Upon completion of the B.S. in Data Science degree program, students will be able to:

  • Identify and collect information needed to define problems that require quantitative solutions.
  • Translate information between field-related contexts and mathematical frameworks.
  • Execute mathematical and computer programming processes with proficiency.
  • Formulate, justify, and evaluate data-based decisions.
  • Design professional and compelling presentations of quantitative information.
