Overview
Key facts:
- Data Science is a multidisciplinary field that focuses on the extraction of knowledge and insight from large datasets. Data scientists are tasked with using a range of skills in applied mathematics, statistics and computer science, and in domain applications such as information science, geography, business, media and the humanities.
- The MS-DS at the University of Colorado at Boulder provides learners with a strong foundation in acquiring, cleaning and managing data. Learners will learn to analyze large datasets using data mining and machine learning techniques. Students will also design, conduct and run statistical experiments and models; draw rational conclusions from data using probability theory and statistics; and more.
- Graduates of the MS-DS program will be well-prepared to apply data science skills to a specific domain area. Graduates will also be able to clearly communicate the results of data science analysis to a non-technical audience; structure effective meetings and projects using collaboration skills; and act ethically in the role of professional data scientist.
