Data science is a rapidly growing field as our economy, society, and daily life becomes increasingly dependent on data, from business to the health sciences. With Portland State's bachelor's degree in data science, you'll learn how to collect, visualize, approximate, optimize, make predictions, and interpret data using specialized software.
As a data science major, you'll not only build a mathematically and statistically rigorous foundation to extract meaningful data from large, complex datasets but through seminars and practicum, you'll gain hands-on experience.
You'll graduate with the skills and knowledge to meet the demand for highly trained and skilled data science experts.
