Bachelor of Science in Data Analytics

Data is everywhere we look. It informs every decision we make and drives our choices.

At JWU, we can help you harness its power through our data analytics degree. Our interdisciplinary program will give you a strong foundation in mathematics, computer science and communications, with courses in both JWU’s College of Engineering & Design and John Hazen White College of Arts & Sciences.

“Our graduates will be able to bridge the gap that too often appears between data analysts and the content experts like scientists, administrators, business professionals, etc., that hire them,” said Professor Evelina Lapierre, Ph.D.

Learn to use specialized systems to collect and organize data, then use statistical methods to discover patterns, find correlations and predict outcomes in order to make better-informed decisions in your chosen field.

You’ll be positioned to get ahead of the competition by focusing your interests through a minor in public health, environmental sustainability, marketing, economics or finance. Then, if you qualify, you can gain industry experience before graduating by completing a 12-credit-hour internship. “An internship is a powerful tool that can create a smoother path to a career,” said Lapierre.

To further enhance your data analytics degree, you can apply to JWU’s data analytics accelerated master’s degree program.

The Data Analytics bachelor's degree program seeks to provide graduates with the knowledge, skills and tools necessary to obtain employment as a data analyst. Graduates learn to use specialized systems and software to collect and organize data, then use statistical methods to discover patterns, find correlations and predict outcomes in order to make better-informed decisions within their chosen field. Students in this program receive a firm foundation in mathematics, computer programming, and communications, along with gaining experience with database management systems and spreadsheet programs.

Upon completion of the program, graduates are expected to:

  • Write reports and make presentations containing visual data or statistical results.
  • Utilize database management systems and spreadsheet programs to collect, organize and display data.
  • Use standard techniques of mathematics and statistics in order to address problems or explore phenomenon that are prevalent in various fields.
  • Develop linkages between their interdisciplinary intellectual inquiries and their own ethical positions in terms of contemporary challenges facing individuals, communities and societies.

This program allows students to either directly enter the workforce or continue to a graduate-level education. The hybrid nature of data analysis in the workplace requires both analytical skills and domain specific knowledge. JWU's program prepares its graduates for this aspect of the profession by offering a selection of minors. Qualifying students will complete a 12-credit-hour internship to gain experience in the workforce. Students also have the opportunity to apply to the 4+1 Data Analytics master’s degree program.
