What will I learn?

Data Science is the emerging interdisciplinary study and application of how we capture, organize, archive, access, and use large-scale data. Data Science alters disciplinary and professional practices, enabling new conceptual approaches and categories of questions, while generating new challenges in ethics and privacy. These issues and opportunities now pervade many areas of human endeavour, from physics to health care to social policy.

To successfully engage with the scope and scale of data resources requires high throughput approaches, with new concepts and practices for effective management, distribution, and presentation of data. Our goal is to give students the concepts and tools to empower their ethical engagement with the emerging potentials and challenges of data, across disciplines and fields of enquiry.

The Certificate in Data Management covers the theory, ethics, and practice of managing and presenting large data resources. The certificate will empower students with tools to advance their disciplinary work, and to progress to graduate or professional practice.

The Certificate in Data Management is 12 credits earned as follows:

  • 3 from MATH 1311
  • 9 from DATA 3001, 3101, 4001
