School of Data Science & Analytics Advisory Board

The School of Data Science and Analytics (SDSA) advisory board is a group of industry leaders who offer their time and expertise to help us ensure that we are focused on graduating students who match the needs of the marketplace. This is especially important as we go through a period of rapid growth with the chartering of School of Data Science and Analytics and the brand-new Bachelor of Science in Data Science and Analytics. Board members provide strategic counsel, help support our programs and events, promote hiring of our graduates, and assist in fundraising activities.
