Master of Science in Data Science - University of Virginia

The Master of Science in Data Science (MSDS) is an 11?month professional masters program, designed to meet the increasingly data?intensive needs of industry and government. The program starts near the beginning of July and ends the next year in mid-May. Core program courses will be taught by faculty from the Departments of Computer Science, Statistics, and Systems and Information Engineering. Three key features of this program are (a) an integrated curriculum and data experience; (b) the compressed duration; and (c) a cohort experience. To achieve these, the curriculum is tightly prescribed with about 80% common to all students.
