Master of Science in Applied Data Science

Clarkson University

For more than a decade, Clarkson's Business Analytics program has been a leader in the field. That experience shows – Fortune named Clarkson's program among the top 20 master's programs in the world in 2025. We stay ahead of the field by constantly monitoring the industry and adjusting our curriculum to reflect the latest trends in analysis and visualization. That ensures you can put your skills to work the day you graduate. You'll learn both from industry experts who teach your classes, as well as through an intensive capstone project that often involves fieldwork. The degree is ideal whether you want to break into the field or sharpen the skills you have. If you already have a job, you can keep working: our applied data science program is offered both in person and online, where courses are held in real time or at your convenience. And, because both online and on-campus courses are taught by the same faculty, you'll get the same personal attention no matter where you are.
