Data science is the study of principled, scientific methods for collecting, managing, analyzing, and decision-making using data. It synergizes and builds upon the computational problem solving of computer science, the analytical skills of statistics and mathematics, and the designed data collection and experimentation of the natural and social sciences to unlock insights and knowledge from large- and small-scale data in diverse mediums (e.g., numbers, text, audio, images, and video).

Currently an integrative concentration, data science will be offered as a major starting in fall 2025.
