By merging modern data science approaches with a solid mathematical background and practical training, the Undergraduate Degree in Statistics and Data Science provides a curriculum that allows students to make significant contributions at the forefront of knowledge across the vast array of activities in government, education, and industry that rely on statistical thinking. Big data is changing the world. Offered through the Department of Mathematics, this degree prepares you to take part in the data revolution. Students earning a Bachelor of Science or Bachelor of Arts in Statistics and Data Science will have a solid foundation in mathematics. Yet they focus on the capture, maintenance, processing, analysis and communication of data through immersion in courses in probability, statistics, data science and computer programming. Undergraduates also must complete a minor outside the Department of Mathematics. The B.A. and B.S. allow students to pursue graduate degrees or careers in analytics, risk assessment, finance, and other math- and science-related fields.
