• Data Science

  As the Data Science major is housed in both BCOE and CNAS, when students declare the major, they choose from which college they wish to have their degree awarded.    If you would like to pursue the Data Science degree in BCOE you’ll be held to the breadth requirements in our college for the Bachelor of Science degree.  The only difference in the degree based on college is which college you’d like to work with while pursuing the degree and which breadth requirements you’ll fulfill.
