About the Data Science & Analytics Program

Data is transforming the world — shaping business decisions, driving healthcare innovation, influencing government policy, and advancing education. At Buffalo State, the Data Science and Analytics (DSA) program equips students not just to work with data, but to think critically, act ethically, and lead confidently in a data-driven society.

  • Combines applied learning with professional development
  • Offers interdisciplinary teaching from faculty across math, computer science, business, and more
  • Connects students with local industry professionals for mentorship and real-world projects
  • Promotes diversity and inclusion, ensuring all voices are part of the data conversation
