[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]With respect to major, consider data science. The many branches of career opportunities available from this major can be explored as this student progresses through his undergraduate studies.[/quote] I have been told that just having a Bachelor's degree in data science won't cut it. Kids need to have at the very least a Master's degree. Not in the field so I don't know if it's true. Anyone cares to weigh in?[/quote] You can get started in the field with a BS, but you need a master's to advance, which I'd say is true in many fields these days. DS did a data science-type major and his first job has the title "data scientist." Good new grad salary, easy 9-5 hours (mostly in office but with some WAH), and his company will help pay for grad school. He plans to work for a couple of years before starting that. [/quote]
