Master of Science in Data Science Student Capstone Presentations

Every MSDS student must complete a capstone project throughout the MSDS program. Students work in groups, sometimes with different businesses or clients, to improve or solve a problem with data science.
“The capstone program is one of the primary ways that the School of Data Science engages with the community,” Claudia Scholz, the Director of Research Development at the School of Data Science said. “Students apply their data science knowledge to help solve problems in the real world. I’m always impressed by the diversity of domains where we can apply data science approaches: health, literature, business, management, the list goes on.”
During this session, our first graduating class from our online MSDS program will present their projects.
