Data Science Minor

Data science is one of the fastest-growing fields today, combining tech, problem-solving, and data to help shape everything from sports to healthcare. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, jobs for data scientists are expected to grow by 35% between 2022 and 2032—much faster than most other fields.

The Data Science minor is designed to prepare you for the future by teaching you how to:

  • Program in popular languages like Python or R
  • Collect, manage, and organize data from different sources for analysis
  • Build and test models that make sense of data
  • Find patterns, draw conclusions, and communicate insights effectively

With these skills, you’ll be ready to make a real impact in almost any industry.

Real-World Data Science Projects and Internships


The Data Science minor includes a hands-on capstone project, giving you real-world experience in data analysis. You’ll choose between an internship or an independent study to apply your skills in a field that interests you.

Recent internships have included companies like the Central Ohio Transit Authority (COTA), State Teachers Retirement System (STRS), and Cardinal Health. If you prefer independent work, past projects have tackled topics like gerrymandering, sports analytics, migraine research, fantasy sports, nursing home regulations, and even climate change.

This is your chance to dive deep into a project that matters to you, and build the experience that will set you apart in the job market.
