Data Science (3+2 Dual Degree)

Our partnership with the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth offers a dual-degree program in which students complete three years of undergraduate study in 数学 and data analytics at 澳门新葡新京官方, followed by two years in UMass Dartmouth's graduate program in data science.

Explore a Rapidly Emerging Field

Data analytics and data science are fundamentally concerned with collecting, cleaning and analyzing raw information to identify patterns, 得出结论, gain insights and support effective decision-making. Our program provides a robust foundation in computer programming, data mining and machine learning, preparing students for leadership positions in data analytics, information management and knowledge 工程.

澳门新葡新京官方的时候, students complete coursework in computer science, 数据科学与分析, 数学, 物理与统计学, along with Core Curriculum courses in the liberal arts. 麻省大学达特茅斯学院, they explore the rapidly emerging fields of data analytics and discovery informatics, which integrates 数学 and computer science to quantify and manipulate information in fields such as science, 工程, 业务, 社会学, 保健或规划.

Students who successfully complete the program earn a bachelor's degree in 数学 with a minor in data analytics from 澳门新葡新京官方 and a master's degree in data science from UMass Dartmouth.

项目关注的焦点: UMass Dartmouth

UMass Dartmouth's data science program is jointly offered by the College of Arts and Sciences and the College of Engineering. The curriculum emphasizes the interdisciplinary nature of data science, with a focus on harnessing the potential power of big data to transform areas ranging from health care to 业务 to government.

This is an emerging field that is impacting nearly all academic disciplines and industries. 医疗保健等领域, 海洋科学, 业务 management and political science – to name a few – are increasingly using data in more sophisticated ways to drive inquiry and decision making.

药膏后的生活

The National Academy of Sciences, the National Association of Colleges and Employers, Business Insider and others cite data science among the fastest growing and highest paid career fields 今天. By 2040, it is likely that most jobs will require at least some basic data science skills, while millions of new jobs will become available to highly skilled data scientists, NAS预测. Business Insider reported data scientist as the best job in America based on recent surveys considering job satisfaction, job availability and median base salary.

可能的行业包括:

  • Business: Data analytics, product transactions and customer engagement
  • E-commerce: Data aggregation, customer interactions, product sales data
