Do you have an interest in problem solving, data analysis, and critical thinking? As a St. Kate's data science major, you'll have the opportunity to acquire a broad background in theoretical mathematics, applied statistics, and computer science in an environment that deeply values personal interaction and collaborative research.

Data science as a field is clearly aligned with St. Kate's mission, vision, and values, as we aim to place women in important roles as leaders, particularly in underrepresented fields. Today, only 26% of data professionals are women, and in 2014, only 13% of chief information officers were female (Better Buys, 2019). 

Based on our St. Paul campus, St. Kate's data science program highlights in particular ethical and socially responsible leadership, and opportunities for global preparation in using data to help with societal concerns. Our data science curricular and co-curricular activities interweave our steadfast commitment to social responsibility and to the practice of ethical leadership with the solid foundations of statistical, mathematical, and technological learning.
