Bachelor of Computer Science (Honours) - Data Analytics (PBCPDA) (Optional Co-op)

Students will begin with the basics in their first year, learning about computer programming, networks, mathematics, scripting and database modelling. More than 80% of Sheridan's Computer Science degree curriculum consists of core courses designed to develop fundamental skills that will prepare students to work in all areas of computer science, both now and in the future. Sheridan College believes that the best way to learn is through hands-on experience. Between a student's third and fourth year of studies, they can work for industry partners through a four-month internship or a paid co-op placement that can last up to 16 months. Students can also sharpen their research skills by providing computer science support to any of Sheridan's various applied research projects. Additionally, students will learn how to apply statistical analysis, data mining and other advanced techniques to draw new and useful insights from large data sets, confidently interpret and share information about the data patterns discovered.
