In January 2023, Inside Higher Ed reported that Stony Brook University (SBU) introduced new graduate programs in data science, including both a Master of Science (M.S.) and a Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.). These programs aim to address the growing demand for data science professionals and to enhance SBU's position in the field of computational research. The initiative reflects a broader trend among universities to expand offerings in high-demand areas such as artificial intelligence and data analytics.
