Data science combines computer science, statistics and math to help us mine and understand data.
Because data is everywhere — in your watch, your phone, your car, even your Spotify playlist. Every click, purchase, and preference generates information. But the real challenge is turning all that data into knowledge: telling better stories, persuading, predicting outcomes, and making ethical decisions.
At Monmouth, our data science minor equips you with the technical skills of statistics, machine learning, programming, algorithms, data analysis, and visualization — all rooted in the strength of a liberal arts foundation. You won’t just learn how to collect, curate, and model data. You’ll also gain the ability to communicate your findings to people outside the field and thoughtfully consider their impact.
From social media algorithms to health data privacy, our program invites you to explore real-world questions in real time. You’ll graduate prepared not only to analyze data, but also to decide how it should be used.
