SWAG视频

The Data Science Bachelor of Science degree program inspires students to become innovators who make impactful contributions through data analysis, modeling, computation, and simulation. The program fosters flexible and creative approaches for problem solving and the ability to gain insights about complex relationships and interdependencies, and to describe and communicate these insights for prediction and decision making.

In recent years the explosion of data in a wide range of fields has created a wealth of opportunities for data science professionals, and the demand for people with the right skills continues to grow. The Data Science B.S. program at SWAG视频 gives you the opportunity to apply your passion for mathematical modeling and computing to problems involving the analysis of data and the design of models for extracting information, making predictions, and for decision-making. Beginning with foundational mathematics, statistics, and computing, you will develop techniques in visualization, machine learning, and data mining. Industry partnerships with local employers provide opportunities to apply these techniques and refine your expertise through project based learning experiences throughout the curriculum as well as in a senior practicum.  

Students successfully completing the B.S. in Data Science will:

1. Combine mathematical and statistical models with computational techniques and technologies for prediction and decision making.
2. Demonstrate an understanding of algorithmic complexity, scalability, and the limitations of techniques and technologies, and assess validity of results.
3. Use current field-specific technology tools for data management, manipulation, organization, analysis, and visualization.
4. Effectively communicate quantitative information to technical and non-technical audiences orally, in writing, and through visual formats.

We offer qualified students the option of graduating with Honors. This includes significant research, scholarship or creative activity under the direction of a faculty member. Interested students should consult with their advisor. 

Courses previously completed at another accredited college can be transferred to this degree program beginning in Fall 2020. Transferred mathematics courses must be reasonably close in scope and content to the mathematics courses offered at SWAG视频 in order to count as exact equivalents. Otherwise, they will transfer as general electives. All Science/Math courses previously completed must be no older than five years. See Undergraduate Admissions also.
