Domain Emphasis Policies & Reminders
- All courses must follow a coherent sequence in ONE discipline. For example, all three courses must be in STA.
- A course used to fulfill a core requirement cannot be used towards the domain emphasis requirement.
- Any deviation from the pre-approved list must be approved by the Data Science Faculty Advisor. Please submit the major modification request form for any requests. Please include the list of which courses you would like to use and their course descriptions.
- Prerequisites for the courses below vary. Be sure to check the General Catalog for an up to date list of prerequisites. Some of the courses below require prerequisites outside of the preparatory requirements for the Data Science major.
- Be aware of registration restrictions. Many courses offered outside of Statistics have Pass One registration restrictions. You will need to plan carefully if you plan to take courses outside of Statistics for your electives. Enrollment is not guaranteed and there is no way to circumvent registration restrictions. The Statistics Department has no authority over enrollment in non-STA courses.
- uAchieve Updates: If you need your chosen Domain Emphasis courses to be updated in uAchieve, you can email you major advisor at [email protected] to have them manually added to your uAchieve record.
