Student Experience

What’s it like to earn a Master of Science in Data Science degree while learning on Coursera?

The program is designed with the adult learner and working professional in mind. You will complete your coursework through the Coursera online learning platform. Courses are asynchronous, meaning you can complete them at a pace that fits into your daily routine without worrying about being late to class.

You’ll learn from skilled professors—many are current or experienced professionals—who take the time to get to know your career goals and help you achieve them. You’ll also be assigned a dedicated Ball State Student Success Specialist who will work with you from registration through graduation.

No technical experience is required prior to starting the program. This program is built for learners of all educational backgrounds and career experiences. Whether you’re working in an entry-level position and want to advance your career, or you want to change careers entirely, this program will help you achieve your goals.
