New Undergraduate Curriculum

Class of 2029 & Beyond

Besides SEAS requirements, students must finish the following department requirements. The total number of credits should be at least 128.

Delaying core courses is not permitted and may result in future scheduling conflicts and possible delay in graduation. Request to drop a major core requirement during the designated semester may result in an unofficial withdrawal (UW) on the transcript. Additional changes to the program plan must be approved by the academic advisor, the faculty advisor, or the program director. The Department does not guarantee that a request to drop is always approved; hence, it is important to continue to attend and engage in the class until the drop is confirmed.

*Can be replaced by COMS W1004 Java. The department strongly recommends ENGI E1006

**DSDA Culminating Experience

The Decision Science and Data Analytics major includes a required culminating experience that allows students to integrate analytical methods, computational skills, and domain knowledge through a substantial applied project or research experience.

Students complete one of the following:

  • IEOR E4524 Analytics in Practice
  • IEOR E3700 Research Immersion in Operations Research and Data Analytics

Electives

15 Technical elective credits required. At least 6 credits of Technical electives need to have the "IEOR" course code and be 3000-level and up. Courses that are in conjunction with IEOR, such as CSOR, EEOR, and ORCS count towards this requirement. 

3 Management elective credits required.
