关于宾大新开的data science

宾大SEAS新开了一个data science专业，现在处于【试运行】阶段，仅对SEAS内部招收transfer项目学生。后面可能会放开招生。 Anyway，贴一下学院里群发的信息
据说很多课和MCIT一起上？

We are pleased to announce that SEAS has established two new programs in Data Science.  Data Science has become essential to making decisions, understanding observations, and solving problems in today’s world.  Whether we want to apply artificial intelligence techniques to a problem, build a computational model of real-world phenomena, statistically test a hypothesis, or analyze structured, textual or image data, data science and data analysis techniques are becoming an essential part of every engineer's tool chest.  Our new programs are at both the graduate and undergraduate levels:

• Master of Science in Engineering (MSE) in Data Science, https://dats.seas.upenn.edu/.  This program begins this Fall as a “limited launch,” only admitting transfer students and submatriculants from within the School of Engineering and Applied Science (SEAS).
  
  The full launch of the program, open to external applicants, will be for Fall 2018.  (Students specifically interested in applying data science techniques to problems from engineering and the physical sciences should also consider the MSE in Scientific Computing, https://pics.upenn.edu/masters-of-engineering-in-scientific-computing.)  
  
  Questions not answered on the website should be addressed to datsmasters@seas.upenn.edu.
• Undergraduate Minor in Data Science, https://catalog.upenn.edu/undergraduate/programs/data-science-minor/ forundergraduates across the university.  
  
  Questions not answered on the website should be addressed to datsminor@seas.upenn.edu.
  

Underpinning both these programs is a new course, CIS545, Big Data Analytics, http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~cis545/, which will be offered annually in the Spring.  Additionally, both the CIS and ESE departments have bolstered their curricula with a number of new course offerings in the machine learning and data mining space.

There has been a lot of interest in the recently announced MSE in Data Science, https://dats.seas.upenn.edu/.  To give an overview of the program and answer questions, we will be holding a webinar this Thursday, August 24 at 11am (Philly time).  Please register for the webinar at the link below; you will receive a reply with instructions on how to join the webinar when it is held.

Note that the program begins this Fall as a “limited launch” only admitting transfer students who have completed at least one semester or submatriculants from within the School of Engineering and Applied Science (SEAS).

楼主，我又来你的帖子了，我看到18Fall的DS项目现在应该是招收国际学生了是吗？

对呀对呀，我也看到了，网站上除了一些课程就没什么信息，然后我发邮件问一些东西也没有回，第一轮11.15太早了···感觉来不及

读 DS，不是 NYU CU的更好吗

照您这么说，大家都申CU NYU了 总得了解一下别的项目情况吧

了解 应该的。
. 1point 3acres 毕竟是名校 又是第一年，总有人先行先试。
如同 NYU MSA，第一年一样，录取标准 没有参照，又没毕业生，不过开在商学院，名气大。

18年fall对外国学生开放申请吗
