Whatever your major, a data science minor provides transferable skills such as understanding data and its different forms, communicating effectively about data, methods, and conclusions and drawing meaning from data.

Learning Beyond the Classroom

Many students choose to pursue experiential learning opportunities related to data science, programs, or research. The department is also able to offer opportunities for learning beyond the classroom ranging from generous grants to annual symposia on ethics in the healthcare professions.
