Foundations Courses

Data Analytics Courses

Courses from a Chosen Domain

The currently available domains are:

Alternatively, a student may propose an individually designed domain.

The required courses in each domain include at least one quantitative methods course. The purpose of these electives is to give students disciplinary knowledge that they can carry into their internship and senior seminar.

Data Analytics Summer Experience

Every student majoring in Data Analytics undertakes an internship or research project during the summer after their junior year. Although students are responsible for securing their own internships, we are continually developing relationships with alumni and local organizations that result in new opportunities for our students. We also collaborate closely with the Knowlton Center for Career Exploration to identify opportunities.

Data Analytics Program Committee

The Data Analytics program is administered by an interdisciplinary committee. Feel free to reach out to any one of us with questions!
