Overview
The Associate of Science (Data Science) Degree covers the first two years of undergraduate study in data science, requiring a minimum of 60 university-transferable credits at the first- and second-year level, including at least 18 credits of second-year science.

Instruction is delivered through lectures, laboratories, online and blended learning, field trips, demonstrations, guest speakers, case studies, and applied practical exercises. The programme awards an Associate Degree, with credits designed to transfer to post-secondary institutions across British Columbia for students continuing into a bachelor's degree in data science or a related field. Full-time study takes two years, with part-time study available and a five-year maximum completion window.
