Though the data science and data analytics majors, and the field itself, are relatively new, we have been training data scientists and analysts for many years. With the dramatic increase in demand for people with data skills, many of our recent graduates, coming from a variety of majors (math, computer science, economics, political science, etc.), have successfully entered this career. Some became data analysts immediately after graduation; others pursued a higher degree then became data scientists.
A Data Career
The field of data analytics and science encompasses a wide variety of data-related careers. Typically, a data science firm works to capture, maintain, organize, process, and analyze data and then communicate the results. Data analysts and scientists are able to translate enormous amounts of data into answers that stakeholders in varying industries can utilize.
