Unleash the Power of Math & Computer Science to Interpret Big Data 

Leaders in every industry have more information than they can manage. As a result, they turn to data scientists to help them gather it, interpret it, and use it to do things like:

  • epidemiological modeling (COVID & viral transfer modeling)
  • optimize shipping routes & supply chains
  • drive online customer engagement through dynamic content on social & web platforms

At Seton Hill, we will teach you how to use computer science, information science, statistics, and mathematics to become a confident, successful data scientist.
