Data Science Concentration

  1. To combine mathematics, statistics, and computing into an integrated curriculum, providing students the rigorous theoretical background of data science methods and techniques necessary for success in data-related fields in addition to just knowing how to implement them; and
  2. To synthesize the analytical skills and mathematical knowledge to analyze data, draw conclusions, and make decisions in real-life situations.
