Why Study 数据科学 at Wilkes?
数据科学 draws on expertise from multiple disciplines. 澳门赌场在线娱乐，不只是意志 you get a solid foundation of knowledge in the state-of-the-art practices, algorithms and visualizations that underlie the field, you'll also have the opportunity to partner with students and faculty from other departments to get first-hand experience solving problems in business, science, the humanities, or a field of your interest.
Additionally, you'll have access to resources capable of tackling even the most demanding 计算问题. The Wilkes Accelerated 研究 Learning and Outreach Cluster, WARLOC for short, offers outstanding computing power and data analysis capabilities 在规模. You can be part of a team of students who conduct research with one of the most powerful academic supercomputing clusters in the region.
What Will You Learn as a 数据科学 Major?
- A blend of foundational computer science and data analytics courses provide a strong base of theoretical and practical knowledge you'll use every day.
- Advanced discipline-specific coursework such as machine learning and artificial intelligence builds on what you've learned, taking your data science expertise to the next level.
- In semester-long practicums, students build, deploy, monitor and operationalize end-to-end machine learning pipelines using real-world data to put theory and concepts into action.
- Pre-approved data-aware electives from other departments allow you to develop knowledge in a specific external domain. For example, if you're passionate about using your skills to support our planet, you can take an environmental science course in global climate change and modeling.
- A senior capstone brings it all together. You'll have the opportunity to leverage everything you've learned as you work on a project team under the direction of a faculty member solving actual problems.
