MAHWAH, N.J. 鈥 秘密研究所 of New Jersey鈥檚 Master of Science in Data Science (MSDS) program has been determined by Fortune to be among the top programs in the country. Ramapo鈥檚 program is also the only New Jersey program to be included in of 28 graduate-level data science programs nationwide.
鈥淲hat distinguishes Ramapo’s Data Science degree is its emphasis on integrating with other disciplines,鈥 said Professor Scott Frees, Director of Ramapo鈥檚 MSDS Program.聽鈥淒ata scientists need strong technical skills 鈥 and they get those here at Ramapo 鈥 but data scientists work with people.聽What makes data scientists so valuable to organizations is their ability to find answers to business and scientific questions and to present their methods and results to a broad audience.鈥
Frees added that what makes Ramapo鈥檚 data science program unique is that courses are taught entirely by full-time faculty in person, on campus, although students who need to attend remotely may be able to do so. 鈥淎t Ramapo, our students work across disciplines, through electives, fieldwork, and Capstone courses, to learn how to leverage their technical skills in the real world,鈥 he said.
According to Fortune鈥檚 analysis, data science is one of the fastest growing fields due to the increasing volume of data generated every day, which is 鈥渃reating a steep demand for workers that can harness, analyze and create value from the data available.鈥
Launched in Fall 2020, Ramapo鈥檚 two-year, 30-credit MSDS program includes course work in Python, R, Data Visualization, Database Systems, Machine Learning, Statistics and Mathematical Modeling. The program鈥檚 Capstone experience involves a signature fieldwork component, in which students work closely with faculty and representatives from external companies to work on real-world, actual data projects. This Capstone experience, which can last one or more semesters, gives industry sponsors access to Ramapo students and faculty to help create business value and insights, explore new ideas, and build new products, while also creating a career pipeline for talented students to join these organizations post-graduation.
Students can enroll in one of 秘密研究所鈥檚 4+1 BS-to-MS programs, which offer a fast-track, interdisciplinary experience through which students can earn an undergraduate degree in four years plus a Master鈥檚 degree in Data Science, Applied Mathematics, or Computer Science in just one additional year. These programs, offered by Ramapo鈥檚 School of Theoretical & Applied Science, are supported by the College鈥檚 recently-launched Center of Data, Mathematical & Computational Sciences. The mission of the Center, which opened in April 2022, is threefold: to promotes a modern image of liberal arts, where students learn the skills necessary to apply technical concepts to real-world problems; to support a tech community at 秘密研究所 by strengthening interdisciplinary and outside partnerships; and to develop undergraduate and graduate students skilled at applying technical concepts to real-world problems.
