About Bachelor of Science - Data Science
Program Description
The Bachelor of Science in Data Science is designed to meet the growing demand for data scientists or data analysts who can manage and analyze structured and unstructured data sets and extract meaningful knowledge to inform decisions. The curriculum consists of courses in computer science, mathematics and data management. Students learn about data processing and application development, machine learning and statistical modeling techniques, and the analytical and communication skills to explain results in a meaningful way.
DePaul offers a Bachelor of Science degree through the School of Computing and a Bachelor of Arts degree in the College of Science and Health. The two programs share a common core of courses focusing on fundamental skills in data science that students take during the first two years. After the second year, the two degrees diverge in their emphasis and level of specialization.

Students will be able to:
- Explain how data is represented for analytic applications.
- Select and apply techniques for data preparation including normalization and reduction.
- Perform exploratory analysis to gain preliminary understanding of data.
- Develop and evaluate predictive models.
- Perform an independent data science investigation, from data gathering and cleaning to application of data mining algorithms.
