The Master of Science in Data Science (MSDS) program, provides students with the opportunity to choose an area of concentration, including Technical Data Science, Smart Cities, Data Visualization, and Marine & Atmospheric Sciences.

Our esteemed faculty are leading the way in cutting-edge research and applications using big data. Here at the University of Miami, you have the opportunity to engage in graduate work and complete an internship in one of the world’s fastest growing tech hubs.

Tables that tweet. Coffee cups that curate messages. Facades that fuel displays. This talk by Dean Rodolphe el-Khoury, School of Architecture, invites the audience to imagine how our built environment will be transformed by information technology and objects that think, connect, and communicate with us and with each other.

Dr. el-Khoury’s research focuses on applications for embedded technology and robotics aiming at enhancing responsiveness and resilience in buildings and smart cities.

With the growth rate for data and information research scientists on the rise, consider a graduate degree in Data Science. Our program offers you the ability to specialize in the arena in which you want to make a difference.

Dr. Alberto Cairo, MS in Data Science Professor and Knight Chair in Visual Journalism at the School of Communication, presents on the importance of data visualization - the graphical display of information - as arguably the most powerful tool to help us derive meaning from the enormous amounts of data produced daily.

MS in Data Science Professor, Dr. Benjamin Kirtman, describes what his research in atmospheric science and big data means for cities across the globe. In his lab at the University of Miami, Ben Kirtman is using one of the world’s largest supercomputers to more accurately predict the risk of severe flooding—in the upcoming weeks and decades.
