About Undergraduate Data Science at UBC


Building on the University of British Columbia's interdisciplinary expertise in data science fields, the undergraduate major and minor programs are offered in collaboration between the departments of Computer Science and Statistics.
The departments of Computer Science and Statistics jointly offer a major specialization in data science. This major specialization equips students with the knowledge and skills to ethically and transparently apply modern and broadly applicable data science methods. Its graduates are professionals who can effectively communicate complex data analyses while upholding fairness and security in their work with a commitment to continual learning and ethical conduct in the ever-evolving field of data science.
