Data Science, Certificate of Achievement
Data Science, with its many applications, is a field of study that draws heavily from the foundational concepts in statistics and machine learning and uses programming to explain or predict outcomes from data. Data Science principles and achievements are omnipresent, dynamic, and ever-changing. The curriculum offered in the Certificate of Achievement is Data Science is designed both for those who are preparing to transfer to a four-year university to complete their Bachelor’s in Data Science, Business Administration, Computer Science, Computer Network Systems Engineering, Hospitality Management, Mathematics, Political Science, Philosophy, or a related field as well those who are currently in the work force and would like to get the Certificate to validate skill building. To earn the Certificate of Achievement in Data Science, students must complete between 15 - 16 specified units.
