The MS in Data Science program has been nothing short of amazing. With 8 years of Python experience, I'm still uncovering new tricks within Pandas, Numpy, and Sklearn libraries. I feel like I've only scratched the surface, and I'm confident this degree will propel my career to new heights.

The MSDS program helped me develop my knowledge of python, R, SQL, machine learning, and Tableau. Even though I may not be using SQL directly at my current job, the skills I learned about database management have translated into the platform we use. Coming from a career in retail healthcare, earning my master’s in Data Science at Eastern gave me the skills and confidence to transition into a data analyst role within healthcare.

Returning to school 15 years after my undergrad experience was a challenge, but EU made it possible. The faculty's support and the thoughtfully designed curriculum gave me the confidence to pursue a technical degree, though my background was in Human Services. The courses were accessible for beginners yet rigorous enough to prepare me for the field. Thanks to this program, I landed a job in the industry before graduation.
