As a data science major at Clarkson, you will go beyond theory and learn what it takes to solve real-world problems. Whether you are in finance, healthcare, government, retail or countless other industries, data science powers how decisions get made.

You will build a strong core course foundation in math and computer science, with a supporting foundation in information science from the Reh School of Business as you gain a 360-degree view of the field. By the time you graduate, you will understand the entire data science lifecycle. You will help organizations determine what data to collect, construct the systems needed to store it, develop the algorithms to make sense of it and share what you learn with others. Our intention is to equip you with the skill set to be a leader now and for the next generation of tools.

The data science program consists of 35 credit hours in mathematics and statistics, 6 credit hours in data science, 13 credit hours in computer science, 8 credit hours in science, 9 credit hours in information systems, and 6 credit hours in application electives. 24 credit hours are in free electives, which is enough to complete a minor or second major if you so choose.

All courses are 3 credits unless noted.
