Abstract:

Data Science is a discipline that has quickly evolved. Many colleges and universities have tried to keep pace by quickly launching programs in data science. Winona State University developed an undergraduate data science program five years ago, and have made some changes to the program over the past five years. Faculty from Winona State will share why these changes were made and how you can avoid making these same mistakes in developing your undergraduate data science curriculum.
