DEPARTMENT OF MATHEMATICS
Calculate and Compute the Future
Department of Mathematics The Department of Mathematics at the Prescott Campus offers two innovative degrees — the Bachelor of Science in Data Science and the Bachelor of Science in Simulation Science, Games and Animation (SSGA) — along with providing the mathematics courses for all programs at Embry-Riddle. Our Bachelor of Science in Data Science combines data science skills with specialized knowledge in various domains. Students work closely with faculty in project-based courses that focus on applying skills to real-world questions. The degree has immediate applications in industry, government and research settings. The Bachelor of Science in SSGA prepares students to create virtual worlds using mathematical algorithms and technologies. The program covers areas such as aviation simulators, computer-aided design (CAD) systems, computer animation software, streaming video networks and computer games.
PROGRAMS
Bachelor of Science in Data Science
The Bachelor of Science in Data Science emphasizes the acquisition of data, extraction of knowledge from data and communication of actionable results. The program seeks to develop students with the capacity to acquire, manage, secure and analyze large and varied sets of data using modern software and techniques. Students are required to choose a specialization track, those options including Business, Cyber Security, Economics, Psychology and others. Bachelor of Science in Simulation Science, Games and Animation The Bachelor of Science in Simulation Science, Games and Animation equips students with an essential foundation in computer science, game design, digital media, simulation, systems modeling, spatial computing and software engineering. Students design virtual worlds and user experiences from the ground up, using industry-standard applications and cutting-edge equipment. The curriculum prepares students to construct interactive, immersive experiences that leverage emerging technology to improve the human experience and foster lifelong critical and design thinking skills.
