 Return to: College of Arts & Sciences
The core of the Data Science major is focused around training in mathematics and computer science with 52 units distributed among these two departments, along with one economics course. This core represents the backbone of the training that will uniquely prepare a student with an impressive array of mathematical, statistical and computational skills. In addition, each student chooses one of three concentrations, depending on his or her area of interest. These concentrations include mathematical data science, computational data science, and an economic data science focus for a total of 68 units.
