The interdisciplinary Master of Science in Data Science (MSDS) provides an accelerated 4+1 program enabling students to earn both their Bachelor's degree from various departments and the MSDS within five years of full-time study. Undergraduate options span departments including Mathematical Sciences, Physics and Astronomy in Arts and Sciences, along with Computer and Information Sciences, Electrical and Computer Engineering, and Mechanical Engineering in Engineering. Students must fulfill all requirements for both degrees, with the possibility of applying up to six graduate credits from their undergraduate major toward both programs.
The B.S. in Applied Mathematics enables students to develop mathematical expertise alongside specialization in one of twenty-one applied fields like Bioinformatics, Cybersecurity, Computer Science, Physics, or Statistics. This program is ideal for those pursuing careers requiring strong mathematical foundations combined with practical applications. Students contemplating a dual major in Mathematics and a related discipline may find this option particularly suitable. Mathematics serves as a powerful tool for analyzing diverse phenomena in our data-driven world, creating numerous career possibilities for mathematically skilled professionals. The Applied Mathematics curriculum blends mathematical theory with focused study in complementary fields, preparing graduates for opportunities in business, government, nonprofit organizations, or advanced studies in mathematics or applied disciplines.
