The post-baccalaureate certificate in data science is a short graduate program for people who already hold a bachelor's degree and want practical analytics skills. Students complete a fixed sequence of courses covering foundations of data science, predictive modeling and visualization, machine learning and classification, and a database course chosen from several options.
