Stony Brook University’s College of Engineering and Applied Sciences (CEAS) will offer a new undergraduate program in data science (DAS) beginning in Fall 2025.

The data science program is jointly offered by the Department of Applied Mathematics and Statistics (AMS) and the Department of Computer Science (CS). Research opportunities are afforded by the newly launched AI Innovation Institute (AI3) at Stony Brook. Students will receive vigorous training in data science covering core topics such as statistical analysis, machine learning, big data analysis/management, and computer programming.

This versatile program integrates computer science with statistical science and machine learning while incorporating a range of electives, including quantitative finance, operations research, and bioinformatics. Designed to prepare the next generation of data scientists, the program is ideal for students interested in the cross-section of data analytics, AI and computing.  Data science skills are valuable in wide-ranging fields including technology, media, finance, medicine and healthcare.
