Program Outline

Degree Overview:

In this major, you will create solutions to data science problems either individually or in teams, by generating programs which apply programming strategies and data analysis techniques. Graduates from this major have knowledge and skills related to data modelling, storage, and retrieval methods, and can apply effective data mining tools and techniques to technology initiatives. You will apply computer and mathematical skills to analyse algorithms and data structures; employ broad and coherent theoretical and technical knowledge with depth in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and data science; and analyse critically and reflect on the issues of privacy and ethics of data science. Mix and match your many passions with a variety of majors and minors from over 30 discipline areas. Choose your study environment whether it’s on-campus, online or get the flexibility of both.
