Students gain competency in fundamental methods and techniques for data collection, management, analysis, and result interpretation.
Their fundamental understanding and skills will be applied to real world data analysis tasks, through state-of-the-art technologies, tools and platforms. This degree is designed for students with no prior background in data science.
Curriculum emphasizes data science concepts in four concentrated areas: 1) Analytics; 2) Algorithms; 3) Visualization and Communication; and 4) Management and Accountability.
Students also have the option to pursue a dual degree program combining the MS in Data Science with any other CCI graduate program.
The University of Portland is a thriving community of more than 3,500 undergraduate students, who come from around the nation and the world, as well as over 1,000 faculty and staff. The University is located up on a bluff in a residential neighborhood overlooking the Willamette River and the city of Portland. The school’s location also is the inspiration for its nickname, “The Bluff.”
The University is currently led by President Robert D. Kelly, PhD. Since our inception in 1901, the University has been guided by the Congregation of Holy Cross, a Catholic order of priests and brothers. The founder of the order, Blessed Basil Moreau, CSC, said, "The mind will not be cultivated at the expense of the heart.” This commitment to educating the hands, heart, and mind are hallmarks of our belief in educating the whole person.

Gain the deep technical knowledge and interdisciplinary skills needed to turn massive data sets into insights organizations can use. Study data management, statistics, machine learning, data visualization and human-centered design. Collaborate in small teams on data analysis projects.
The Master of Science in Statistics and Data Science, offered by the Department of Mathematics, provides students with training in the statistical analysis of data sets, as well as in state-of-the-art data mining techniques.
Data has become one of the most critical tools in shaping our economy, society, and culture. Now more than ever we need people who can understand this untapped resource and draw conclusions so vital to future success.
The demand for data scientists, data engineers, and data architects is rapidly growing across many industries. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment of data scientists is projected to grow 35% from 2022 to 2032, which is much faster than the average for all occupations.
The Master of Science in Data Science is an interdisciplinary graduate program that combines the teaching of domain-specific and technical skills for analyzing large data sets.Â
