Data Science BSc

at Lebanon Valley College

The modern economy runs on data. To succeed, organizations must have tools to collect and organize data, then build software systems that apply models to that data to find patterns and make informed predictions about the future. LVC’s Data Science Program develops technical expertise while also emphasizing flexibility and foundational skills that will enable you to adapt to new technologies and paradigms long after graduation.

Students begin the program by laying a foundation in mathematics (with calculus and linear algebra), statistics, and computer programming. Through classroom experiences and individual and team projects, they learn how to build, evaluate, and deploy models that use data to clarify uncertainty, assess new information, and inform decisions.
