Cert in Data Science

This credential is built for working adults who want to enter jobs centered on data. It also suits students pursuing undergraduate degrees in business or the sciences who want an additional skill set alongside their major. The sequence consists of five courses. Topics include descriptive and inferential statistics taught with R, visualization in Tableau, spreadsheet methods for analysis and the basics of SQL. Learners handle realistic data sets and practice retrieving, tidying, examining and presenting information, so the work resembles tasks found in professional settings. The certificate can be finished in under a year. Students choose a fully online route or a hybrid one, which lets them fit coursework around jobs and family responsibilities. Prospective students with questions are directed to the Registrar's Office, and the page also lists the required courses and credit counts.
