University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point
01/01/2015
Data analytics professionals are defined as those who understand the processes and tools of data science and can use domain-specific expertise to turn data into information. The need for these data professionals, both in Wisconsin and across the country, far exceeds the current supply of trained specialists, especially at the baccalaureate level. The goal of this undergraduate degree program is to prepare students to obtain and succeed in entry-level positions in data analytics. Graduates of this interdisciplinary program will be well equipped to manage datasets; use a wide range of analysis applications, programming languages and methods; and interpret and prepare findings. The program features an interdisciplinary curriculum that integrates the fields of business, computer science, economics, geographic information systems, mathematics, and statistics. Show More

PLEASE NOTE:

If there are fewer than eight enrollments in the training program, only the "Enrollments" number will be displayed; all other data is hidden in order to help protect the students' identities. The "Employment Outcomes" are calculated using information from Wisconsin's Unemployment Insurance Wage database. Most employers are required to report certain employment information to the State of Wisconsin, including quarterly wage information for their employees. Students whose information could not be verified in this database are excluded from these outcomes. If a "0" shows for any of these outcomes, it means that none of the students' information could be verified.

MAKING SENSE OF THE EMPLOYMENT OUTCOMES:

"Average quarterly wages" means the total wages earned in a three-month period by all students who completed the program ("completers"), divided by the total number of completers.

"Median quarterly wages" means all the completers' quarterly wages are placed in order from lowest to highest and then we identify the student's wages in the middle. This information is provided because averages can be greatly influenced by really high and low wage earners.

To estimate monthly wages, divide the quarterly wages by three.
