New data analytics major at Thiel College to open doors for students into growing field
S For Story/10400727
Thiel College is accepting applications for its new data analytics major.
GREENVILLE, Pa. - s4story -- The Thiel College's newest major will be available in the fall of 2020 with its recent approval of a Bachelor of Science in data analytics major in the Department of Mathematics.
Businesses and industries are using data analytics to draw conclusions from large sets of raw data and solve a wide range of complex problems and improve performance. Thiel College (https://www.thiel.edu/) graduates will be prepared to enter a job field that according to an article in Forbes Magazine is expected to have an estimated 2.7 million postings in the United States by 2020, and a January report from Indeed.com showed a 29 percent increase in demand for data scientists year over year.
The Harvard Business Review has called data analysis "the sexiest job of the 21st century." As a group, mathematical science occupations are projected to outpace the average growth rate for all occupations, according to a report by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Data analysts work in a variety of private and public sector organizations and do jobs similar to actuaries, who work in the insurance industry. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, Ohio, New York and Pennsylvania are among the top states in the country for actuaries and data research analysts, with the greater Columbus, Cleveland, Erie and Pittsburgh metropolitan regions specifically being top employers.
