Master of Applied Data Science

As systems and structures in almost every industry expand, sophisticated data collection, analysis and dissemination demands increase. How, when, where and why society uses data continues to evolve. As we prepare for new jobs and bolster existing ones, we grapple with questions on the ethics of data use. In other words, how can we put data to work across a wide breadth of industries and organizations for human good?

The University of Michigan School of Information is pleased to offer a fully online master’s program in applied data science.
