The Data Analytics minor consists of computer science, statistics, and technology-related courses to provide students exposure to a variety of relevant and in-demand skills and better prepare them for post-undergraduate work. In addition to traditional coursework in computer science and mathematics, students will customize a selection of technology modules best suited to their major and their plans after graduation.

A minimum of one-third of the required credits must be earned at UMF for a minor to be awarded.
