The DataScience@SMU program prepares data science professionals to understand, manage and analyze large data sets, as well as communicate the results. Blending the flexibility of online learning with an interdisciplinary curriculum, this Master of Science in Data Science program allows students to benefit from Southern Methodist University's connection to the global business community without having to relocate.According to The New York Times, data science “promises to revolutionize industries from business to government, health care to academia.” As data accumulates, organizations are hiring individuals with the expertise to find meaning in the numbers and drive positive business decisions based on what they learn.
