Industry practicum

Apply your coursework in a professional setting with organizational and faculty supervision.

Practicum

A practicum for real-world experience.

Every student completes the Industry Practicum: a full-time placement inside a real organization, working on its own data-related projects, with a supervisor there setting the work and a professor from the program checking in. It is a three-credit course, and most students take it the summer after their first year.

Which term fits you is a conversation with the faculty, who will have watched you work for a year by the time it matters.

Students have worked in environmental science, medicine, finance, insurance, and national defense.
