Data Science Bachelor's Degree

Data scientists use advanced analytics technologies, including machine learning and predictive modelling, to support the identification of trends, scrape information from unstructured data sources and provide automated recommendations. They are employed by consulting firms, universities, banks and information technology departments in the public and private sectors.

The Bachelor of Science in Data Science is an interdisciplinary undergraduate program involving coursework in four different areas: Statistics, Computing Science, Mathematics, and Business. You'll learn about optimizing operations within an organization, enhancing product/service features, describing trends, evidence-based decision-making, and predicting outcomes. You'll also complete two capstone projects—one at the beginning of the degree and the other towards the end of the degree—to give you the opportunity to analyze and provide solutions for real-world problems.

Data Science: Bachelor of Science Degree - Major

The Bachelor of Science, Major in Data Science explores the broad field that encompasses the generation and analysis of data. The nuances of this can require advanced knowledge of networks and computing systems, or can require advanced knowledge of analytical methods such as statistical machine learning, and in many instances knowledge of both.

The Bachelor of Science in Data Science provides training in Data Science, which focuses on making decisions supported by data.
