Emma Croxford '22 (Mathematics, Data Science, History, Spanish): Following Her Passions to a PhD in Data Science
Emma Croxford, one of the first students in UIndy's data science program, recommends that all students consider a minor or major in data science.
"I would recommend a minor at minimum for almost every major," she said. "Data science is applicable in every other field in some way. In my time in the writing lab, I’ve read a lot of papers for the fields of psychology and kinesiology, and a lot of those are very statistically-based. You don’t realize how much statistics really plays into those fields. So having a data science major or minor for those fields would be an impeccable addition to somebody’s résumé, especially if they are planning to go into a DPT [doctor of physical therapy] or an OT [occupational therapy] program.”
