Wentworth will be offering several new Master of Science degrees this fall that are focused on a growing list of highly desirable fields: Data Science, Business Analytics, Civil Engineering, Architectural Engineering and Environmental Engineering.
“We’ve conducted extensive market research and have heard directly from folks in industry—there is high demand, and these degrees will set up our graduates for very successful careers,” says Dean of the School of Computing and Data Science Durga Suresh-Menon.
The programs will all have online options.
The new degrees join a spate of master’s programs that include Applied Computer Science, Architecture, Computer Engineering, Construction Management, Data Science, Electrical Engineering and Project Management.
“The demand for job applicants with master’s degrees jumped by 50% within the last three years,” Suresh-Menon says. “And these disciplines are among the fastest-growing fields in today’s job market. We’re very excited to be offering them at the graduate level.”
