What it isData Science is the study of extracting useful insights from large datasets using statistics, programming, and artificial intelligence techniques. Unlike a pure statistics or computer science program, it combines all three fields to prepare you for roles where you analyze real business and research problems. It suits people who enjoy math and coding and want to work with data across many industries.You study how to design and build software and computing systems that solve real engineering problems. This program combines computer science with broader engineering principles, so you learn both coding and how systems fit into larger projects. You complete paid work terms alongside your studies, giving you industry experience before you graduate. It suits people who want hands-on engineering work, not just pure programming.
