BS in Data Science and Health Science

The BS in Data Science and Health Science is a combined major (Khoury College and Bouvé College of Health Sciences) that offers a strong grounding in health administration and public health combined with data science experience — preparing you to examine health care issues through an analytical lens. Form new insights in your biology, chemistry, and public health classes as you build an understanding of data in its various forms and find the balance between quantitative evidence and social science literature.
