What will the minor in big data teach me?

With the rapid advance of computer and internet technologies, data is being collected at unprecedented scale in a broad range of application areas, which presents many challenges as well as novel opportunities of big data management, analysis, retrieval, and modeling. The minor in big data provides you with both the technical skills and the theoretical knowledge to address evolving big data challenges. Through core courses and electives, students who complete the minor will develop skills in advanced statistics, machine learning and data mining, plus programming and data management, and build expertise in solutions to a broad range of big data problems.

Housed in the College of Engineering, the interdisciplinary big data minor includes courses from computer science and engineering, mathematics and statistics, and information systems. The minor in big data is open to all students at the university. Completion of minor requirements may require completion of additional courses as prerequisites.

Big data is an interdisciplinary field, and faculty at the 推荐杏吧原创 are applying big data to a range of topics. In computer science & engineering, faculty are using big data for machine learning and robotics. In the School of Journalism, big data is integrated into reporting and data visualization. Researchers in fields like biology and physics are using big data to understand and model the spread of wildfire smoke and its effects on air quality.

Students minoring in big data can find opportunities to get involved in these projects and more to gain hands-on experience with the role of big data in understanding our world.
