Data science courses are interdisciplinary, combining courses from SMU’s Dedman College, Lyle School of Engineering and Meadows School of the Arts. Courses provide students who are prospective data scientists with an enriched background in computer science, statistics, strategic behavior and data visualization. Students will learn to form relevant questions, collect and analyze appropriate data, and make informed decisions regarding the question of interest. Course instruction includes oral and written communication skills and the basics of database structure, including building, maintaining and securing databases. You can find more information at datascience.smu.edu.
